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

you're covering more distance with the same amount of information you can
get better definition, i.e.. your higher frequencies appear longer on the
faster spinning record and are therefore easier to pick up.

Does this make sense and is it true?

Yes, although not 'definition', just more extended treble,


Bull****.

It was ever your habit to ignore facts. The treble extension of vinyl
is entirely related to groove speed, which is a function of radius and
rotation speed. In fact, the outer grooves of a 33.3 LP have higher
groove speed than the outer grooves of a 7" 45, but a 12" 45 has the
capacity for a third of an octave higher treble. Of course, it's back
down below the outer grooves of a standard LP when it gets to the
inner grooves, but that's CAV discs for you!

hence the
existence of 'audiophile' 12" 45s by RCA and others. OTOH, surface
noise is higher,

More bull****.

Just simple truth, and we know that you can't handle that. The output
of a MM or MC cartridge is velocity-sensitive, so speed up the groove
and the surface noise gets louder. It ain't rocket science!

The sad thing Pinky is that, coming from *anybody* else, the above might
have been interesting and worthy of debate. Coming from you, it just gets
stamped 'More Bull****' and tossed in the bin.....

Just shows the slings and arrows of having a closed mind like yours, Keith.

When you ignore truth you lose Keith, not the person who posts the truth.

Am I alone in finding it incredible that a supposed vinyl fan like Mr G
hasn't ever noticed the change in quality between start and end of *any*
LP and worked out that it's mainly down to the velocity?

Or perhaps his hearing really is that poor?

If you are referring to me then yes I am quite aware of end of side
distortion & other downsides like not linear tracking etc. Vinyl is just a
part of my listening which also includes CD, DAT, RTR, Cassette, HD. I also
do quite a bit of recording for which I use a 24 bit DAT, Milennia media
pre's and Neumann mics. I also am sound man for 3 bands at present and yes
I have hearing audiograms from time to time to keep check on HF hearing loss
with age and never use ear buds...maybe that answers your question Vinyl is
just one part of the enjoyable music experience because like many I grew up
with it, similiarly valves but I do also have CD players, digital recorders
etc. How about you?
