    Well some things to mention, he doesn't take into account distortion and what not, also some CD's have better dynamic range and some worse, it depends on the mastering. Not dissing his findings, there certainly are some LP's where the CD counterpart is much worse in dynamic range, but there are some LP's out there where the CD has more dynamic range. It's all about the mastering. SeeDee as you call it is on it's way out the door for the most part anyways, and with digital downloads we really don't have a limit on space and what not, so it just comes down to standards. Either way still an interesting video.

      Quoted from the source who provide me the link:

      "The video is a very simple demonstration of the beyond 20kHz content that vinyl captures, but Redbook fails time and time again to get right. Loudness wars put more nails in the coffin".

        But how much of that above 20khz is distortion is what I was saying.

          Actually, based on the equipment used (TT, cart, etc.) maybe all of it!
          But it is odd order harmonic & 100% analog, so........It must sound better than digital distortion! :W

            The real question here, is, we can't hear that high...so none of it matters........ RIIIIIIGGGGHHHHHTTTTTTT?!!?!

            lol.

            Interesting video. I like it.

              Some studies have shown that frequencies that high can actually irritate your hearing.

                And some have shown they are preferred:

                From the Oohashi Report:

                [the] study by Tsutomu Oohashi et al.,[3] which supports the idea that although humans cannot consciously hear ultrasound (sounds at frequencies above approximately 20 kHz), the presence or absence of those frequencies has a measurable effect on their physiological and psychological reactions. Attempts to independently reproduce these results have so far been unsuccessful.
