What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want?

But you've brought up technical reasons why you may prefer hi-res or why hi-res is better. At that point, you have invited technical discussion, and all that implies.

And just as I have not assigned ulterior motivations to your arguments in this discussion, I would ask that you extend the same courtesy to me. We should discuss the facts and leave everything else out.

Ultimately, audio phenomena is complex and cannot be fully measured or scientifically explained. We must rely on our God-given ears which are the most precise instrument of all.

I also like to use my God-given brains in addition to my ears. We can measure with far higher resolution than we can hear. However, we do not necessarily know how to interpret the data.

It's not easy to show the sound improvements without having a stereo system to playback for each of you. Therefor I choose to show papers that support my view here in the misguided hopes of opening some minds around here.

That cat with four god-given ears must be the most precise animal on G-d's Green earth. Like a furry Bob Ludwig.

Bonus points for quoting Ludwig.
