Again, I'm really not trying to be dense. But you need to spell out what you're showing. Did you record from your own SACD player? Do we know which of the SACD players used for the M&M tests can and cannot output above 20 KHz? I honestly don't understand what you're showing.--Ethan
Yes, Ethan... now you are being dense.
1. I gave a link to the equipment used.
2. I gave a link to the analysis of one of the discs that were used.
3. I did an analog capture of 2 of the players used and compared them to the original file.
3. The players they used are not much better than Redbook and that anyone would have a problem identifying hi-rez from RBCD. Yes, they do output measurements above 20k... but not much.
4. I gave a link to the analysis of a player here in the studio to show you what a good SACD player should look like. Using this player and inserting a bottleneck would allow you to correctly identify, blindly, which is hi-rez and not.
5. Ethan, you're arguing for the sake of doing so when the information is provided before you. So unless you have anything more to contribute to this discussion as far as my data is concerned, then I'm moving on. I'm not feeding the troll. So if you're "honestly don't understand what I'm showing", then I think you should seek another line of work.
Please answer John's questions. We want to see data. I showed you mine.
