Re: Greatest Hits (SUPER HIGH MATERIAL CD)
super high material CDs only come out in japan. i'm sure it was promoted there.
Not particularly - that I know of anyway.
I guess I've got something to look into now. The actual physical material might be better, but I'm somewhat doubtful about the sound quality being better. Not to get too much into geeky audiophile talk, but in my experience with ripping CDs over here, I've found that many Japanese pressings of CDs tend to be normalized to sound "louder". With some older CDs that were mastered at a very low level, this isn't necessarily always a bad thing. However, I've seen a bunch that are so overmastered that they basically have no dynamic range and the peaks clip out and distort.
That being said, it's possible that these Super High Material (haha so Japanese) CDs are actually re-mastered in a good way. I'll see what I can find out.
