Re: The usual assumption

Fixing digital: just like vinyl, the medium has specifications that have to be respected, like RIAA for vinyl, or 44.1 kHz for CD. You can't "fix" such specifications without being confronted with major problems are all levels.

However, before fixing a problem you need to know whether there actually is a problem that needs to be fixed.

Digital jitter has been identified as problem, but how do current CD players perform in that respect? Is their jitter below threshold of audibility?

Sampling rate: is there solid evidence that 44.1 is not sufficient? I mean evidence from perceptional science under controlled test conditions.

Bit rate : ditto
