AnalogPlanet Visits the Hi-Res Pavilion at C.E.S. 2017
The Digital Entertainment Group brought high quality sound in the form of high resolution digital audio to the gadgeteers at the main convention center.
Of course, tech guys like David Pogue feel threatened, having declared CDs "perfect" so here was a chance for people to hear it for themselves on high performance headphones through hi-end DACs and witness live interviews conducted by Sound&Vision's Mike Mettler with some of the recording industry's brightest players.
I mention Pogue because he wrote a disparaging story in which he called hi-res audio "The Emperor's New Clothes" based on a faux "scientific" experiment he ran at a mall. It really pissed me off and let him have it. He said my email indicated "bad breeding". I told him his story indicated far worse.
