So when you play a CD through your computer, or use CD ripping software to get the audio content, you're probably getting the pre-emphasized audio data. Since it has not been de-emphasized, it will probably sound too "bright" and/or hissy (although your audio equipment or your damaged ears may keep you from noticing). Therefore you may want to do de-emphasis processing yourself.

If you got the pre-emphasized data, it would sound right, and you wouldn't want to de-emphasize it. Was the above supposed to say "you're probably getting the emphasized audio data"? Maybe the author was thinking 'pre-de-emphasized' and didn't properly cancel the negations. 70.124.88.175 21:46, 5 November 2013 (CET)
