Pretty easy to simulate, if you are handy with an

How to increase "warmth":
snip
Has anyone ever manufactured a device to do this
automatically, i.e. a "vivyl warmth"-ifier? Given
that some people (claim to) really enjoy the sound of
vinyl, this would seem to have a built-in market.
Why do you say, "claim to"?
Simple, because an individual's preference for vinyl
might have nothing to do with actual sound quality.
True with CDs too, of course.
Of course, but why would one feel compelled to make such an off-topic
comment?
Just being clear.
There does seem to be a general preference for sound with less audible
noise
and distortion, which is one reason why CD's outsell LPs by more than
100:
1.
Fewer and fewer know what acoustic music typically sounds like.
What an elitist statement to make.
Not at all.
I guess we ordinary peasants
don't know how music should sound, never mind that many of us love
live performances. We need advise of gurus like JA, Rober Harley, Jenn
Martin, etc. to know the "TRUTH".
Another idiotic statement. The evidence is clear: fewer people attend,
play, or sing acoustic music than in the past.
BTW, how do you know that it is "fewer and fewer"?
Concert attendance, instrument purchases, participation in community and
church choirs... all down compared to even 5 years ago.
Some of
those people like the sound of many CDs. I agree with them. Some of
them also have experienced some LPs to be the best sound at home they
have yet experienced. I'm also one of those people.
Some people love necrophilia, I am also not one of those people.
I'm happy that you feel that way, Vlad. I'm especially happy for dead
people everywhere.
