Dear music loving audiophiles,These afe some preliminary findings: The Reference CD whose absolute polarity is correct is a DDD and so the vinyl record had to have been made using a DAC so somewhere after the DAC something went wrong because the vinyl record if out of absolute polarity. The Reference HDCD High Definition Digital Sampler is out of correct absolute polarity both when the CD version is played on a CD player and the HDCD and a Toshiba DVD player for the HDCD. Thus a CD player that plays an ordinary CD of the same material but play's it back in absolute polarty will make the copy sound more like the live performance than the HDCD being played out of absolute polarity.
The Opus 3 records were all made in correct absolute polarity if the phono stage we used is non-inverting and all its CD tracks are out of absolute polarity. The problems would seem to be h somewhere in the analog domain.
Best regards,
George, Perfect Polarity Pundit.
