In Reply to: Crappy recordings; good music... posted by *Michael Z* on May 6, 2008 at 06:13:24:
We've got great hifi's when given proper recordings can sound great at close to realistic volume levels. We need to realize not all recordings are worthy of such playback levels and turn the volume down as needed. Nothing is going to save a bad digital transfer or poorly pressed recording on bad vinyl but most recordings no matter how compressed or "tweeked" should sound decent on a good audio system at reasonable volume levels.
Most CD releases since the early/mid 90s sound good to me though I rarely like CD reissues of music that I'm familiar with from the vinyl era.
IMO if a stereo sounds bad on more than an occasional pop/rock recording it's a bad sounding stereo. I suppose someone could have a propensity to select bad sounding recordings but that's a different issue all together.
Give me rhythm or give me death!
