It's an erroneous statement to say that low cost sources will not be as good

sounding as expensive sources. You can write a book on human perception of

audio and why throwing more money at the problem iimproves SQ.

Don't you find this funny-> People have been upgrading to better CD players

since the format come out decades ago thinking that they can get better sound.

Semiconductor technology moves forward.

.... then *bang*.... people are finding better sound by going back into the dinasaur era

where vinyl roams the land .. and guess what ... the dinosaur technology sounds better to them ...

talk about going back decades in technology to get better sound, how hillarious. Think about

this in great detail when you want to talk down a $100 CD player .. rofl.

Vinyl has an effective infinite sampling rate.... this is why it can sound better than redbook cd with it's forced 16/44.1...... Bob Stuart of Meridian who is one of the biggest fans of CD (he thinks vinyl is crap) said himself that a 20bit/78khz recording is just about perfect for digital.

Someday I want to an extreme ABX test. MP3 vs. CD and watch people fail. lol

Doesn't get more hardcore than that. Compressed canibalized vs. canibalized sound.

MP3 definatly sounds bad.... I can't stand to listen to it...

depends

sounds bad on headphones, and nice stereos, but you can't tell the difference on small-form computer speakers

the newer mpeg 4 based compressions sound much better, tho

I can stand MP3 on some headphones, MDR-V6 yes HD-580 no. mpeg 4 is better for sure.

When it's mixed right and the right PA. I grew up with my dad owning a PA company so I have heard some pretty terrible live sound and am more critical with live than anything.
