Now that Zanth has confirmed that I'm not going crazy
I've noticed in several of my CDs, a faint hight pitched whine whenever the vocals come on. The sound is like the high pitched CRT whine you hear from monitors and televisions.
So far, I've noticed it only on CDs that have choral music such as the Mediaeval Baebes, Zanth's HDCD Sampler Disc and The Lord of the Rings Soundtrack.
The whine usually starts just before the choir starts and goes away when they stop singing for long stretches. But as soon as the vocals return, so does the annoying whine.
I was wondering if anybody has any idea what might be causing this annoying sound. Anybody know what I'm talking about?
BTW... it doesn't seem to have anything to do with bad equipment as Zanth and I both heard it through his Shanling CDP
with our Etys. I've also heard it though my Paradigm Studio 40s, so it isn't restricted to headphones either.
