(American Top-40 is heard every week on sorry radio stations like
WBCY Charlotte. . .)
Speaking of which, I just got the Warner Brothers/japanese CD of
"Love Over Gold." This record may be the compact disc's finest hour.
(It also proves that my 10 year old Accuphase is due for replacement . . .
110 w/ch is not sufficient to play this CD at high volume).
I'm a digital video engineer, but I do have trouble with this
concept of the "right" and "wrong" way to transfer an analog tape to
digital format. I do know about dithering noise (to prevent that
spurious kind of harmonic distortion caused when low amplitude signals
are digitzed close to an integral division of the sampling clock) and
channel to channel phase linearity, etc. What other problems are there?
Dire Straits (and, I know it's silly, but the Telarc "Nutcracker")
CD have really increased my awareness of quality music reproduction 1000000fold
The Telarc CD should be required listening for elementary school students
learning the "sounds of the orchestra." Dire Straits should be required
listening for you to get your FCC general radiotelephone license.
Anyone who can suggest other CD's of this calibre, please send
mail. Thanks...
