extended FR, it all

Could you explain why you think LP cannot exceed CD in this category?

It's seledom denied that it has the *capability*, but it's also a
known fact that the reality is rolloff above 12-15kHz to avoid
overheating cutter heads. MFSL half-speed masters may be the
exception.

Amoung those that follow the state of the art of LP mastering it is a
known fact that this simply isn't true and hasn't been for quite some
time. None of the current audiophile mastering engineers are doing this
nor have they been. I suggest you get your facts straight before making
such absurd claims.

My facts are correct, and are confirmed by the engineers in charge of
mastering for Linn records. Are you suggesting that Linn vinyl is not
state of the art? Furthermore, are you aware of *any* vinyl (aside
from the old subcarrier quad stuff!) which has any musical content
above 20kHz?

I also just about choked on my coffe at the hilarity of *you*
suggesting that someone else get their facts straight before making
absurd claims!
