Super happy for you. Me: didn't die. Not even joking.

Here are a couple of posts in Audio Asylum from the late Mr. Charles Hansen (founder of Avalon speakers and later Ayre electronics) where he illustrated the history and inner working of HDCD. There are many more related posts you can find in Audio Asylum. I found them both educational and very interesting read. https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/digital/messages/18/184385.html https://db.audioasylum.com/mhtml/m.html?forum=digital&n=184436&highlight=HDCD+pacific+charles+hansen&search_url=%2Fcgi%2Fsearch.mpl%3Fsearchtext%3DHDCD%26b%3DAND%26topic%3D%26topics_only%3DN%26author%3Dcharles%2Bhansen%26date1%3D%26date2%3D%26slowmessage%3D%26sort%3Dscore%26sortOrder%3DDESC%26forum%3DALL

I am officially fucking re-tired....and retired. A wonderful last week of work, topped off by a small celebration with some team members, and our CIO (blond-haired woman). The first couple of my cube, with the obligatory note that - as of today - everything is now MY fault. But a shirtload of notes on multiple cards and extra pieces of paper. I ended up topping the night off with a call with a hometown friend. She is a troubled soul and needed a supporting voice. We talked until 3:30am this morning! I wish I could do more to help people, but being a good listener and supporter is good for now.

Welcome to the club. We are currently sitting in the Phoenix airport waiting for our son’s flight to land. Oh and we are both drinking a beer because what is a better deal than airport beer.

Longtime listeners will be familiar with my obsessions surrounding the music of Oliver Lieb. OL wears many hats, working as a producer, remixer, DJ and mastering engineer. In my jaded opinion, he's one of the people best at mastering techno on the planet. Oliver's productions are legendary for having every element positioned perfectly in the mix. OL has an on-again, off-again approach to social media. He'll post a bunch then take a few years off. He's been active recently, posting a bunch of historical photos and information. In his own words: TIL that OL is a big fan of vintage Quad and Parasound gear. It's like he's pandering to make me an even bigger fanboy. 🤣

But does it HDCD? Finally, a more objective analysis of Pacific Microsonics' technology:

That's Schrödinger's cat and it can never be trusted.

Happy belated birthday, Doug!

Well deserved time to rest and focus on yourself -- even though you started by helping someone else! You'll always be a mensch, which is one of your many great traits. Cheers on joining the formerly employed! 🎊
