When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I have heard some $90K Analog Equipment that sounds just as....sterile? It sounded just as you described "PRISTINE with all of the resolution of an electron scanning microscope and absolutely sound NOTHING like music". In fact I have tried to sear... 
Are We Talking CDs And CDPs Out Of Existence?
Whole heartedly agree with Charles1dad. I have been to the Front of those battle lines. The fighting there is merciless. I just don't get the militant aspect of some pro-Computer Audio proponents. I don't even see the corporate support for researc... 
How to defeat Pioneer DV-58AV auto power shut-off?
DAC is safe. E-mailed Pioneer Service Center. They claim the same, that non-use auto shut off is not defeatable.Pain in the ____ though! 
How to defeat Pioneer DV-58AV auto power shut-off?
Thanks for the inputs. Strictly using DV-58AV to playback 2 Channel CD, SACD, and High Res. DVD-Audio MLP. Strictly using it for Audio Disks, and connected to Audio System only. Do not have DV-58AV HDMI connected to TV. I am not controlling DV-58A... 
Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved
My apologies to everyone. I am just unsure as to what everyone considers as "Musical Archive". Back in the day Iseem to remember a lot of Musical Archive stored on Master Analog Tape. CD happened, then New Music was recorded on DATTape. The last t...

Not looking for benefit from greater selection in High Resolution Music Downloads, Hfisher3380. Looking for theSAME selection available that we have become accustomed tofrom other Formats. It is a simple common sense requirementthat Music Download...

Noble100- I don't think that you have read all of my Responses. If you had you would know that I haven't given up on Computer Audio Downloads. There really isn't a choice now on the Audio Market. The Format isn't the issue. If 10,000 Records were ...

Hfisher3380- refer to my previous response. Do you see how I did that? I am not satisfied with the severe limited selection of Music Downloads to make it the ONLY Format left available- "Soon All New Music Will Only Be Available As Music Downloads... 
Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved
Sorry Guys. "Soon ALL NEW MUSIC will only be available as Music Downloads". You change ALL NEW MUSIC to ALL MUSIC then your Format will have something to offer everyone. Selective is what selective does. If your Download Format is that selective i...

Model T argument wearing thin, and completely irrelevant to purchasing Music by your favorite Artist. Actually I don't listen to Records ( Can't afford a half dozen high End Audio Formats- not in this economy ). Last that I checked Records are mak... 
Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved
Guys, been there, done that for the last year (8 pages). You simply cannot claim "Soon All New Music Will Only Be Available As Music Downloads" when NOT everything is available as Music Download, AND 10,000 CD Selections are currently NOT AVAILABL... 
Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved
Last couple of my Responses have been rejected for being too"inflammatory". I was hoping to end this Thread once, and for all. I will only say that for most Music you can still pretty much get it via CD, or Music Downloads. You guys are the ones w... 
Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved
This is the ONLY Audio Format switchover where we have less Music available NOW than we had before the switchover began.That which is available now ( Non-MP3 Downloading ) apparently has to be searched for through the ever expanding four corners o...

Nonoise- Yet I can count, and CD Manufacturers can confirm-and verify the same numbers. It is not about mapping, but simple addition- and subtraction. Math remains the same in any territory. It is that simple. Why do you try to make it so difficul...

Nonoise- something serious like you're going to have a heart attack? Are you that sensitive?Hfisher3380- I work for a living. Other people pay me for my savvy. In my Music Enjoyment, being savvy means doing less searching for Music so I can spend ...
