what a version is this?
- original with preemphasis (with increased dynamics)?
- the original without preemphasis (with reduced dynamics)?
- or reconstruction of BT for ProUse?
Because I'm lost :-)

Generally I'm looking for the version mentioned by "yymca6"

Appleyard's files are almost the same as beatlesnyttigt's 'Abbey Road (1983 Japan Toshiba Black Triangle) CD' with only one different audio sample for track 01, for example.

Track 01 comparison results (Appleyard vs. beatlesnyttigt)
Leading null samples:
43136 vs. 43234

Appleyard's 8637017th (3m15s) sample (beatlesnyttigt's 8637115th sample):
-8418, -5627 vs. -8122, -4646

Other samples are completely the same. The differences above indicate that these files are ripped from the same CD by different people.
It is natural for me to assume that these files are untouched rips of the black triangle CD.

I have nothing more to say. Cheers!

The dynamics would be the same so a non-issue.

A CD with pre-emphasis intact basically has a 10+ decibel treble boost added at mastering stage to the WAV files. You would NOT want to listen to that without that boost being reduced by the analog de-emphasis circuit in a CD player or having the EQ modified in a DAW.

To hear the CD as intended you would have to make sure your boot copy of the Toshiba has the pre-emphasis bit manually set in your CD burner software. If you don't set that flag (or don't verify it is set) then you will have a very UN-pleasurable listening experience.

To make a CD with that pre-emphasis removed requires RE-EQing the WAV files in a DAW or other program.

I recorded the analog outs from my CD player years ago and I think those sound slightly better than the DAW adjusted files. The adjusted files sound slightly dull to me. A real Toshiba CD playback sounds great very different than the 1987 and the 2009 masterings.

Something (old analog out rip from Toshiba)

Something (my own attempt at DAW adjustment).
