CD quality is clear enough for the human ear. I certainly can't see
any real reason for a so called better sound quality. Only an audio-
phile who listens to music with scientific equipment could find it
useful.
Besides, vinyl is better anyway.
I know one dude who refuses to listen to anything if the sound quality
is not crystal clear. He's a herb who obviously doesn't listen to music,
he listens to sound quality only. I really can't understand that type
of orientation. It's like hating Miles Davis and only listening to
trumpetists with a virtuoso technique and no soul/real feeling, which
is often the downside of virtuosity.
