Take 2:

Look and listen closely - digital stuff all suffers from the loss of
that final sharpness, be it sound or images....

Alas, no matter how many 'takes' you make, your theory disagrees with
my experience. :-)

Word Insertion Technique noted - 'theory'...??

Your theory is that **all** "digital stuff" is as you describe.

Yet in reality you probably haven't listened to *all* recordings. Nor does
your theory make much sense once you take into account that a number of the
LPs you like were probably in digital form prior to being cut to vinyl.
:-)

I have also made CDRs of LPs, and I - and others who I have tried them one
- then can't tell them apart if they only have the sounds to go on.

So the problem is that you convert some specific experiences into a theory
which you then apply to *all* "digital stuff". But which fails to agree
with some cases which you fail to take into account.

My *experience* disagrees with yours and my opinion is shared here.

But that was not what you said above. :-)

Slainte,

Jim

The word theory doesn't come into it, it's a belief based in my own
experience. I consider it would be a 'theory' if I didn't have that
experience.

Now you're just guessing.....

Thus showing that you don't understand the meaning of "theory". :-)

Your statement said nothing about it being your "belief". It was simply a
statement presented as being absolutely correct in fact with no exceptions
or qualifications.

Slainte,

Nonsense. Go see this Dictionary.com entry:

And put me down for a 6, 7, some Bombay Potatoes and a Nan bread, if nothing
else....

(Tip for dealing with simple 'enthusiasts' who are not necessarily
*lexicographers* - try to understand what people mean rather than that which
they might actually say.... ;-)
