i would agree with the HD broadcasting audio spectrum cause that is a
totally different horse of another color all together which i would be glad
to see happen sooner then later .

The water example is an excellent one, speaking as one who can't stand the
taste of chlorine. Thanks for this very good message.

Not so, although you may think it is because you are playing it on the
same equipment that it was recorded on. Take that same recording and
bring it to a professional studio and you will quickly notice the
difference. Having said that there are recording artists that record
their songs at home in order to save money on professional recordings,
and the quality of their recording is acceptable to be put on a CD. The
standards for home recording equipment is improving dramatically, and
definitely meets the standards of low end professional equipment. Most
radio stations that play CD's on air use home equipment, as it is much
cheaper, and when it breaks down they throw it away and simply get a new
machine. Professional broadcast quality CD players sell for over
two-thousand dollars for a single unit, and a home unit can be purchased
for under a hundred bucks. You would be hard pressed to detect the
difference in audio playback quality between a home and professional
unit on a broadcast station. By the time that signal leaves the studio
and ends up on your receiver it goes through a number of changes. Audio
processing and equalization are just a few of these changes that take
place in the chain of events between the studio, transmitter, and your
receiver. Broadcast engineers do their best to make sure that the quality
of their audio is as close as possible to the quality of the audio that
leaves the studio. The best analogy that I can think of is a water
treatment plant that cleans up your drinking water. To some people the
taste of the water is acceptable, and to others the taste of chlorine in
the water is unacceptable. The audio debate will definitely take on
another form once we move into HD digital broadcast audio.

bruce i would have to respectifully disagree with you
with a good home recording set up you can get the same pro recordings as
the
pro's do, and so for those of you who like to do the restoration of
vinal,
tapes, 78's and lps and reels and the like go for it

Are professionally-produced CD's of the albums you're interested in not
available? They may well have much better sound than anything you could
produce with home-grown equipment.
