Pacific Microsonics HDCD is a 20 bit CD format also compatible playing on 16 bit redbook players (but without decoding the extra resolution). It's a wonderful system because these decoders make even 16 bit CD's sound better when played through them. The HDCD's don't cost $25 each either. PC audio has even recently adopted the standard. Comparing the same recording on redbook vs. HDCD is just no comparison; the added resolution, air & dynamics make this choice a no brainer.
