Re: [newmellotrongroup] SACD or DVD-A

That's interesting.  I have just received a copy of the remastered  Tomita 
'Snowflakes are Dancing' and it sounds extraordinary.  But is it  because I've 
been told it will?  Sometimes John and myself get  over-sensitised to a 
particular recording, be it pitch, timbre or some other  effect.  You have to walk 
away and return again another day and  the problem has gone.  I like MiniDisc.  
It sounds amazing to me,  especially at mitigating overly fussy CD sound where 
it seems to balance  out the inherent problems I hear.  I suspect it is 
psycho acoustic effect  but I don't care - it works!  I mistrust mp3 and have 
several decidedly  dodgy recordings in this format.  This may also be psycho 
acoustic but I  suspect it actually is a crap format.
 
Best,
 
Martin
