Given that technology has move on a bit since the record player (and the
CD player!) were developed, would it be possible to product a domestic
_analogue_ audio system which is better quality than those which
currently exist?

This imagined system, at the very least, must have:-

* flat response (none of this RIAA curve stuff)
* better dynamic range (at least 20 dB higher than vinyl)
* better S/N ratio
* less distotion i.e. no pitch variations, rumble, surface noise etc

and probably a few others than I've not thought of.

Nice to haves would be durability and convenience but let's not get our
hopes up.

Basically, you have carte blanche and this imagined system does not need
to be backwardly compatible with any analogue format.

How do you do it?
