Hi everyone,
it has been a while since my last visit, but right now my hybrid electrostatic are almost finished. I use a CD player as a transport together with a DSP for equalization. So I want to buy cd's. For instance: Zoolook from Jean Michel Jarre. When looking at: http://dr.loudness-war.info/album/li...&album=zoolook I see that the older releases of this album have better dynamic range compared to te recent (remastered) ones. I can buy the old releases secondhand at for instance Discogs, but in most cases you buy a used one. (or you have to spend a lot of money for a mint condition old release).
So now I'm wondering: should I buy a secondhand old release with better dynamic range, or a new cd? I tend to go for the secondhand / old release. It seems that quite often older releases have better dynamic range. Is this audible and an issue?
Kind regards
