Vinyl 'bitrates'

Stewart's last post made me think (extraordinary as that sounds); Does the

you're covering more distance with the same amount...

I don't totally understand your question? But I'm gonna have a stab. A
DVD-Audio player is not really intended for home cinema as it won't have a

Overdriving speakers.

And what goes wrong when they're driven too hard, is it the coil rouching
the magnet?
