I've heard good analogue tapes (two of the 50s and
60s original Mercury master tapes, for example) but
never in a home audio setting. I'd like to try to
borrow a good Revox or similar and hear an excellent
analogue master tape and see if I perceive the
timbre issue to be similar to LP. That would help to
determine if what I like about LP sound is due to
colorations inherent to LPs.
Well assuming you could get the appropriate and
calibrated Dolby A setup, I think you'd be blown away
by how analogue tape takes that "LP sound" and raises
it to six no-trump.
How excellent, then, that by doing a good digital
transfer of that tape, one can capture that six
no-trump sound and protect it from degradation.
Exactly. She's really exposed herself this time. The
worst thing that can be said about CDs is that they may
accurately reflect master tapes, which the LP never
could do.
Jenn has revealed that she has no clue as to what
master tapes are really all about, or how they relate
to her obsession with the non-existent realism of LPs.
She's also beginning to expose the fact that she has no
idea about how recording and reproduction are actually
supposed to work.
Pure BS Arny. Jenn has said she prefers really good
LP's over most CD's,
all CDs -- at least, all she's heard -- really.
because to her ears instrumental timbres sound "more
real". A lot of audiophiles agree with her.
A lot don't. Game over?
Make that: At least 100 times more music lovers disagree with Jenn.
That Harry could imagine that the number of vinyl bigots is a
significant
percentage of all audiophiles is part of his, umm disconnectedness
with
reality.
Vinyl bigots, no. There are very few around. Audiophiles who have
decent
vinyl systems and think that vinyl *can* sound as good (or in some
cases,
better) than most CD's.....that's a different story.
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Geeze Mike; your thong in a bunch tonight?
(Your name is Mike, isn't it? I've only seen derivatives of it here,
and I don't care to participate in that. If I have your name wrong,
sorry.)
His name is Mike McKelvey.
No it isn't.
