A while back I made a reference to a woolly memory of something I had read
in HFW to do with Tim de P's views on bitrates and their vinyl equivalents
and said I would post a reference to it, if it ever appeared. Well it's
popped up out of the blue and is, of course, nothing like I remembered it.

It's on 2 pages of the April 2004 edition:

plus the top left paragraph he

The 'bitrates' are nothing to do with vinyl it seems - simply Tim De P's
idea of a minimum requirements for digital to come even close.

Now, having said all this, I still have another memory that there are some
pretty impressive figures somewhere that compare vinyl 'information flow'
very favourably with digital bitrates, but I've no idea where from and have
no intention of trying to find out. - I don't need to, I *know* there's more
detail in vinyl played on decent equipment. I can prove that to myself
anytime I feel the need with a number of CD/LP pairings.

(I've even had people here, pointing it out to *me* on my own sodding
kit...!! ;-)
