RE: That's goid!

I am not intimidated by the measurements crowd.

Yet you started off right at the beginning talking about the dynamic range of a CD and how it they sound compressed and noisy to you? I'm thinking this is more an issue of resolution than dynamic range but that noisy seems more than a big reach when comparing with cassettes which almost always were inundated with noise when I've heard them.

Everything sounds compressed because most of it is - otherwise it would be mostly worthless for most playback environments. Funny how that's only obvious to you on CDs.
