Indeed, a good reference site. I use it every time I purchase a CD.

What difference does the dynamic range mean? You either enjoy the album or you don't. You can find great music no matter how wide the dynamic range might be.

If you have a Ferrari, and enjoy driving in the hills I can agree. But having a map to identify roads that give you a more “spirited” drive can make a typical mountain drive even more fun. The same is true for having an album you enjoy PLUS a presentation that shows what your system can do.

This topic has little to do with the material itself, but more the recording and remastering of the music.
All else being the same, a recording with more dynamic range versus a remastered recording that is overly compressed will sound better. Higher dynamic range translates to a more lively, more engaging, more natural experience. Many old original CD releases simply sound better than newer “remastered” versions due to less compression. |
