The need for at least one bad recording....
Marvey:
Zeppelin is a really good as a test (and listening) tracks. Good resolution, but probably because it isn't overproduced and mixed over 100 times.

Yup but it depends what mastering you are using...

Some ancient CDs I bought in the early 90s. Are they any good?

Easy to check....
Look on the back of the CD case and look for the apologetic notice that is was mastered from analog tape and may contain imperfections and noise. If it says something to that effect, you have the good ones...the Barry Diament masters.

i know you guys like cd and vinyl, but ever tried tape? i don't listen to much of it but one tape in particular, the phantom of the opera with the original cast sounded really good to me. had good dynamics to it even if it had the typical background hiss of tapes. this was on a kenwood tape deck i found at goodwill too, hooked up to my 1972 Sansui 5000x receiver at the time. nothing too special. you can make fun of me. i like some tapes. i haven't tried 8-track though yet lol.
