Muzica in format 96/24 + o noua gaselnita HQCD
Legat de noul format HDCD care va aparea in septembrie pe piata mai este si formatul SHM (Super High Material CD) dezvoltat de JVC si Universal Music Japan. Pot spune ca am achizitionat niste astfel de cd-uri , ambalaj si prezentare super, dar ca sunet nimic deosebit fata de un cd normal. Dintre cele trei formate japoneze XRCD, SHM si HQCD pana acum tot XRCD-ul se aude mai bine. Aici intervin si alte chestii la XRCD baza este masterizarea deosebita pe cand la SHM si HQCD difera doar materialul folosit la blanc. HQCD au blancurile din argint, XRCD dupa multe teste inclusiv gold au ales blancul clasic de aluminiu, iar SHM-ul au ales un materila folosit la fabricarea monitoarelor LCD. Dupa ce voi primii in cursul acestei luni si primele HQCD-uri scoase pe piata promit sa revin cu un topic nou privind comparatia lor la care voi mai adauga si cele de la AnalogueProduction Gold cd , dar pana atunci puteti citi despre SHM si HQCD mai jos:
"The high quality SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) format features enhanced audio quality through the use of a special polycarbonate plastic. Using a process developed by JVC and Universal Music Japan discovered through the joint companies' research into LCD display manufacturing, SHM-CDs feature improved transparency on the data side of the disc, allowing for more accurate reading of CD data by the CD player laser head. SHM-CD format CDs are fully compatible with standard CD players."

HQCD"Memory Tech, an optical disc maker from Japan, will start to produce a new kind of audio CD from August. The news discs are supposedly able to deliver higher sound quality than existing CDs.
According to Japanese newspaper reports, the company announced they will manufacture 2 million CDs of their so called HQCDs per month. Compared to conventional audio CDs, production costs are five times higher. Instead of aluminum, Memory Tech uses self-developed silver alloy to coat their HQCDs.
Aimed at fans of Jazz and classical music, the new discs will hit Japanese stores in September. It is yet unclear whether the HQCDs will be offered outside Japan as well.
Memory Tech is mainly known as a provider of recording media in this country. As of now, the company web site [JP] doesn’t offer any information on the new product."
