Reference Recordings only doing hybrid cd/sacd now, sad I'm gone.


This was a letter I sent to them, after their reply that they are no longer doing 24/96 hdcd PCM only CD's, just combined hybrid cd/sacd

" Hi Marcia, I’m afraid to say that will be it for me buying RR recordings then, if they are all going to be hybrid. As I don’t know why but all hybrids not just yours, just don’t seem to have the same quality of sound on the CD layer to me When played on my Esoteric cd only transport.   Please let me know if things change back the way it was"

" . . they are no longer doing 24/96 hdcd PCM only CD's . . "

When I ripped a few HDCDs, they are read by my computer as 24/44.1 which is what I I am pretty sure they are, at best.  What is your information?.

Also, does anyone make HDCD decoders anymore?  If not, how can you expect RR to keep turning them out?
