It does indeed sound "soft" (as in the
antithesis of "hard"), but it's a softness that
in no way implies a lack of detail or high-frequency
extension. If anything, there's **more**
(subjective, at least) high-frequency extension
and detail, of great delicacy and precision.
Softness in that sense, which entails no diminution
of detail or diminishment of the high frequencies,
is one of the audiophile holy grails!

I'm continuing to rip and burn my CDs ( ;-> ).
I haven't started labelling the DVD-Rs yet --
I'm hoping that software like "Sure Thing CD Labeler"
will be able to grab data from the DVD-Text area
(like CD-Text, only for DVDs), which is where
Eximius puts the album and track information it
got from the path of the WAV files. I know Sure Thing
can grab CD-Text, but I don't know if it's been
enhanced to handle DVD-Text. I'm not actually
planning to stick labels on the DVDs, but I want
to make stick-on labels for the paper envelopes
I've put them in, and I want the process to be
as painless and automatic (involving no re-typing,
hopfully) as possible.
