Default Too damn old for this silliness...

OK, for completeness, I've performed this operation on my system too.
I used a 10kbps MP3 so there would be a reasonable amount of top end
extension. The microphone is not a flat measuring type such as you are
using, but it is pretty good.

OK. That certainly looks convincing enough! Do you want to email me that mp3
for direct comparison?

I have also not been idle and I'm now looking like this:

A quick earball on the Tannoys tells me they just won't do - back to the
(comparative) lack of clarity/depth and the omnipresent thrum of a
'bassline' that just sounds like traffic or summat! (SS/digital only -
before you ask...!!)

More shortly but I'm on a 'tidy as you go', so it won't be quick!

Why do I just know this is going to end up 'measures ****e but sounds
(comparatively) superb!'...???
