CD's are presently only capable of storing data up to ~22khz. It is physically impossible for a regular CD to contain information above this point, as it is half of the sampling rate.

Plus if the System has a response over 20k the performance below 20k is improved...

College books are bad, my books this semester were just under $400. I had to buy those nearly a month ago and I don't have enough extra money to buy my favorite book. I'd love to get my hands on that book by Vance Dickason, didn't google or the library of congress did a thing where the scanned every single book?

The Home Audio/Video section does need a sticky, this is all good info.

Amazon was scanning books to be sold as digital copies and the library of congress stocks every book printed in the US... And WOW that's expencive.

The book I love is "How To Build Speaker Enclosures" by Alexis Badmaieff and Don Davis; but it was last in print in 1975. It's one of the most well rounded build books I've ever got my hands on...
