Not sure if it is all in the recording as if you listen to an LP of the same song, sibilance is much reduced if not absent. Seems to me digital is adding to this effect.
CD players/DAC spitting SSS reproduction
Having many CD’s of female singers I hate that type of digital sound that gives that edgy sound with a lot of spitting s on highs. Is this still intrinsic in recordings and therefore a top notch CD/DAC will anyway reproduce it or it just depends from the converter quality ?
I read once that studios mikes is contributing a lot to this phenomena. When this is still true I don’t see a reason why a good DAC should not reproduce them (basically it should not filter the sound, right ?)
Thanks for your experience
