My experience with remastered 20 bit, they are cheap recordings catering to those that think 20 bit is better. I prefer original recordings and I research for the original. I’ve bought MFSL that I thought were poorly done, then again I’ve have several that were done correctly. It all depends on the original, you can remaster anything to conform to your gear that sounds like shit on a better system.
Trouble with 20-bit HDCD
Greetings,
I purchased a CD that turned out, on delivery, to be a 20-bit HDCD published in 2002 (although the disk itself brand new). The music on it is very rarely recorded (Girolamo Kapsberger’s “Jesuit Opera”) and only available in this format.
My Project transport (Box RS) doesn’t recognize the disk, however. I presume that there is no solution to this problem (apart from buying a different transport) but I’m still interested in what kind of compatibility issue may cause the problem.
Thank you,
Csaba
