Have there been any A/B studies that demonstrate that any format (high resolution) is superior to “Red Book” CD format reproduction?
As a caveat directly concerning my own hearing, my ability to hear frequencies over 6000 Hertz has been lost due to U. S, Army live fire basic training
Conducted without hearing protection in 1960. Direct exposure while firing 30-06 rifle fire, .45 Ball pistol ammunition and artillery fire - all close up and
personal, is the cause of my deficit.
If there is “proof” that high resolution does, indeed, demonstrate superiority and it is for frequencies above 6000 - well, no help to me.
Thanks, team!
