Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sound quality of a digital recording depends mainly on the A/D and D/A converters, as they convert the analog sound signal into digital and then convert it back into analog for playback. The recording medium and whether the signal is optical or electrical may affect the signal transmission and storage, but they do not have a significant impact on the sound quality itself. Similarly, whether the signal is on a hard drive or CD does not affect the sound quality, as it is simply a matter of different storage formats.
