there is a lot of information on wickipedia under compact disc and redbook cd. i would think a newer cd player would have a superior dac in it than a 20 year old cd player.
CD Sound Quality -- please help educate me
Hi,
I'm hoping for some help in learning more about CD sound quality. I enjoy listening to vocals / jazz / acoustics / classical (ie - Jane Monheit, Joe Pass, Kenny Burrell, Miles Davis, etc). Keep in mind that I'm not technical nor an audiophile. :)
Having recently improved my listening experience through the help of many members here in the Tech forum, I'm considering upgrading my CD player (Sony CDP-X111ES from about 1991). My other components include: Anthem AVM2, Adcom GFA-5400, KEF C75.
I'll post my questions in the next post -- I think the number of characters in the Question post is limited.
