you must have a very low regard for the actual sounds of acoustic
instrument to claim the experiznce of hearing one live can be fully
duplicated with a recording

First of all, I didn't make such a claim. I claimed that you could come
pretty damned close, with existing technology. I stand by that statement.


not even remotly close IMO.
I guess this is where we part ways

Simply because I've done both live and studio for almost 30 years, and
I know you're heavy into the reinforcement side, I think what these guys
are getting at (given both specific recording *and* playback parameters
are met) is not entirely impossible. At least they have the faith (desire)
to believe they'll one day prove it's possible. I doubt their faith will cloud
their reasoning... too much... g
