Although I respect the opinion of people who advocate digital as a
superior medium, my experience and that of other people who have
worked on both and listen to recordings from all eras is that
high-speed analog is superior (if the recorder's electronics don't
smear the transients etc.)

in fact, I have discovered while hunting down old classical records
from the 30s to the late 50's that the 78 record with all it's noise
and distortion has a realism to it that surprises listeners used to
cd's.
recording to cd makes the 78 lose it's 'feel' and so you hear the
distortion more than the music.


Geeze...

I'm not even going to bother...
