The vail which hangs over the sound of normal CDs was lifted, the clarity and ambiance or the original recordings was suddenly apparent in the High Performance discs. The sound is truly three dimensional. The bass is deep and focused, while the highs are open and transparent. Technically it is difficult to explain how increasing the sampling frequency to 96kHz and then decimating it down to 44.1 for the CD could make such a sonic difference. But, to the very critical group of listeners, there was no question about the artistic results.
Many more releases are in the mastering stage.
