[QUOTE="Timber_MG, post: 9875, member: 18"] Compression when applied correctly is not objectionable and in many cases desirable to keep very rare high peaks in check. Its abuse is common and it has gone so far that the power of a music signal's peak/average ratio can be as low as 6dB in some passeages. It usually happens after the proper recording and mastering on behest of record companies and artists (because loudness being seen as a factor in sales success) I agree that CD will eventually also become a specialist medium, but in our markets it will remain the preferred distribution medium for a while (just see how long we still had tape cassettes) [/QUOTE]
