In Reply to: I'll Say The Same For SACD, It Wore Off!! posted by Robertc88 on April 28, 2003 at 04:29:43:
Thought you might like to know.My friend, JimS brought 5 treated SACDs to my place last week.
Chesky DSD sampler
Jerry Goldsmith Film Music
Tsai Chin Golden Voice Vol.2Can't remember the title of the other 2. The difference we heard compared to my untreated discs was laughingly dramatic. 5 major improvements can be described as:
Less smearing of sonic images.
More separation between each instruments and voices
Better articulation of the transients
Layer of veil removed
Less harshness in the presence rangeStay tuned for more reports!!
