    Quality of CD recordings is a major bottleneck. Even recordings by big names Deutsche Grammophone, Philips and Sony are often sub standard. No matter how good is your hi-fi equipment, "garbage in is garbage out". Many lables use compression so that CDs sound better with car CD players, mini-systems and such with limited dynamic range.
    Bad news for audiophiles.

    There is a free Naim CD with the HFC issue 259, out now. It is revelation. :)

    Naim is having a promotion on their CDs right now. You can buy nine of their full priced CDs for £5 each from their dealers.

    Read all about it! Not to everyones taste though it seems.

    OT, Bluemax, any news on how the other 'Will' in Scotland reacted when he received a cheque for speaker cable he wasn't selling? ;) :)

    Musical tastes vary of course. I am no expert but the recroding quality was excellent I thought.
    The Scottish Will was great. He sent me the stuff same day as he got my cheque. Did not even bother to clear it. :)
