I don't think Carver's contribution to digital disc audio has
anything to do with sampling rate or bandwidth or numbers of bits.
From what I've read it has more to do with what he did to his amp
to get the blessings of the golden ear fraternity..he made it have
a non-flat frequency response to match that of ...the Levenson (?).
THis same gimmick sells speakers. It sold JBL's for years. ...and
Altecs. ...and will go on selling things......"Hark! listen carefully!
Note that the glotch sounds clearer and more transparent in the upper
midrange...there...hear that?
"....well, by George, I do believe I do hear that...$$$."
If you have an equalizer you can play the game yourself. Just be sure you
only introduce a teensy-weensy bit of boost.
