Aww... I got here too late. Now it's starting to get all rational again... boooooring.
You missed it...Pal...

That one guy seemingly knows a lot more than you. In this forum, we go by what we can prove, not what we can shout as being right. If you have some evidence of changing an amp changes the sound based on controlled testing, then say it and everyone would appreciate it. If you are unwilling, then, don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Wherever you hang out, make sure you bring common sense with you that this is a hobby and not a reason for an outburst like I am responding to.
As I said, lack of common sense.....WELL YOU”RE A REAL CUNT!

He makes up for it in eloquence and evidence however. Sorry, couldn't help it. It's been a hard day and though childish and ridiculous... this thread has given me some much needed levity. Now I need to clean some coffee off my monitor... wasn't expecting escalation to this level.As I said, lack of common sense.....
Mod note: Last few personal posts deleted. Guys, you really want me to babysit you? Ignore each other's posts if bothersome.
Noboby will miss you here. What you brought here in 24H: "DSD sounds much better", "reel to reel tape sounds much better" "You can't even afford a decent stereo system" (how the fuck would you know that?) "Are you from a socialist country?" and "go masturbate".WELL YOU”RE A REAL CUNT!
On the one hand I agree, on the other hand - with all of the extremely intelligent people on this forum, it's easy to be blinded by selection bias and begin thinking that everyone is that smart. Sometimes you need a few samples far outside the mean just to keep you honest.Noboby will miss you here.

RIP, I let you be permanently banned with my blessing.

Just when you thought romance was dead..WELL YOU”RE A REAL CUNT!
But what I have been doing as a hobby, is I take the poor sounding digital music and re-record it on 10” reel to reel. And then the dynamic range is expanded (DBX) and the bass boosted as well. It’s really been fun and enjoyable!
You know it took more than 10 years after the introduction of cd before they could even come close to the resolution of the reel to reel master tapes.
You can make fun of it, but it is the highest quality.
I am going to start investigating let me know what your favorite programs are.
Just when you thought romance was dead..
Yes the rules of flirting are quite different down there ..Maybe he's Australian? That's kind of a term of endearment down unda...
Looking at the Adobe Audition screenshots, it appears the declipper simply applies a LPF to the clipped peaks. Or is there more to it? Any interpolation?
Yes, I'm aware of the use of interpolation. I was interested in what Audacity (sorry, not Audition) was doing as the peaks in the screenshot you posted showed much less high frequency content than the surrounding waveform.Declipping functions try to reconstruct the missing waveform interpolating it with some algorithm:
Audacity:

Audition:

I wonder if Audacity is also using the simpler "Cubic" approach which uses spline curves which would result in the "clean" peaks I'm seeing.
;; Algorithm by Benjamin Schwartz
;; Clip Fix is a simple, stupid (but not blind) digital-clipping-corrector
;; The algorithm is fairly simple:
;; 1. Find all clipped regions
;; 2. Get the slope immediately on either side of the region
;; 3. Do a cubic spline interpolation.
;; 4. Go to next region
I need to redo the above.
Thinking over and looking at the DR table above shows some tracks where the DR hasn´t changed much. These are tracks (4, 6, 8) which are not clipped at 0dB before and after the HPF.
Unfortunately I cannot do it (with 6dB attenuation before filtering) in the next 2 weeks.
On the other hand I do not doubt the general effect, as can be observed in track 1...and the following vinyl and unaltered CD P/L measurements are fine as well.
