The Mastering Show #18 - The Emperor's New Ears

In this show we give a conclusive answer to all those heated online debates about what audio gear sounds best. Mics, converters, cables - you name it. And we tell you how to find out for yourself. But why you probably shouldn't bother. And along the way we discuss: - When data-identical files sound different (and why) - What the Three Fingered Mouse Click is, and why you need it - The ultimate audio test: "5000 dollars or your house" ! - Why you really shouldn't move your head when working on audio - When expensive cables really CAN sound better, and why - even though they actually don't And plenty more !
