Sigh. You prefer vinyl to CD. So in many ways have just
got off the boat. Take a CD and copy it to another CD. You'll not tell
the
difference between them.

Take that same CD and copy it to LP. You'll instantly
tell the LP copy from the CD master.

This means LP is *adding* something to the audio that it
shouldn't.



Dear oh dear...

Is that what this is all about? You still trying to win
the Vinyl Wars? (See below...)


The vinyl/CD war was won by CD almost 20 years ago. Why are you still
fighting it, Keith?

Vinyl is stronger than it has been for the last two
decades


No, its in decline again. People can get CD players that simulate scratching
well enough, now.

every turntable manufacturer in the world has
brought out new models and even people like MF and EAR
have got into it


Each selling a few turntables every month compared to the millions of
digital A/V players sold every month?

. Competition for high quality turntables
and vinyl accessories on eBay is ferocious,
cartridge/deck manufacturers are bringing out new models
and the DJ scene has never been healthier!


Yes, the DJ scene is far healthier since the vinyl umbilical cord was cut.

You lost. Get over it....


???????????????

No way!

That you choose to ignore this most fundamental of flaws
means you're really not worth trying to educate over
other matters like horn colouration, break up of cones
with full range drivers, etc etc.


Educate?


True, anybody who is a die-hard vinyl bigot 20 years after the fact is
arguably impossible to educate. Old dogs and new tricks, etc.

You really think I need/could get an education from you?


Well, there's need and there's the possibility of a very rusty screw ever
getting turned without breaking.

(You really think you're placed to educate me?)


Having two or more synapses to rub together and make a logical though is
qualification enough.

Laughable!



No, pathetic.

I'm happy that you enjoy your hobby and certainly that
you make so much of your own bits and bobs, but when
your flowery descriptions of just how much improved the
latest one is over last weeks delight read like the very
worst excesses of the Hi-Fi press.


They what....??


If you can't answer it, avoid it - that's your preference, isn't it Keith?

That made most genuine sound
enthusiasts simply stop buying them.


WTF is a 'sound enthusiast'...??


If you have to ask, you will probably not be able to understand the answer.
