"AAD" is a term used in the SPARS code, which describes how a CD's audio was recorded, mixed, and mastered. SPARS stands for the Society of Professional Audio Recording Services, and the code indicates the following stages: First letter: How the original recording was made.A = AnalogD = Digital Second letter: How the recording was mixed.A = AnalogD = Digital Third letter: How the recording was mastered for the CD.Always D = Digital (since CDs are inherently digital media). For an AAD CD:The recording and mixing were done in analog, but the final mastering for the CD was digital.Why is AAD rare or desirable?Analog Sound Quality: Many music fans consider analog recordings to have a warmer, richer sound compared to purely digital recordings.Transition Era: AAD CDs are usually from the 1980s and early 1990s, during the period when the music industry was transitioning from analog to digital technology. Over time, most production moved to fully digital (DDD), making AAD CDs less common.Collectible Factor: For collectors, AAD CDs are often seen as a snapshot of music history, representing the intersection of analog artistry and digital convenience.Original Masters: In some cases, AAD CDs may contain versions of albums that are closer to the original analog master tapes, which can appeal to audiophiles. This combination of historical significance, unique sound qualities, and scarcity contributes to the appeal and collectability of AAD CDs.REMEMBER - Cheapest option is not always the best option - buy with peace of mind that your CD will arrive in excellent condition (all CDs ship in cardboard mailers inside bubble envelopes, or boxes where applicable), and time has been taken to fully test to assure your CDs will play perfectly GUARANTEED. You will receive the exact item in the photos. All CDs are thoroughly software tested and guaranteed to play flawlessly. This is obviously very time consuming, but assures maximum quality. Jewel cases may contain cracks, broken teeth or hinges - I try to note this where possible, but just please be aware that there may be imperfections with plastic cases. Used CDs may contain surface marks, small scratching or scuffing, but are fully tested to play perfectly - If a CD has any playability issues or doesn't meet my quality standards, it goes to the landfill. Having said that, most CDs look new. I ship everything packaged securely in cd mailers inside bubble envelopes, or bubble wrap/boxes where applicable.
