Says it all and I will not add to this thread again
other than to say, having been cornered into the
position of 'Sole Defender Of Vinyl' in UKRA in the
recent past, all I ever sought was that a *small few*
should not have had it banned as an 'inadmissible audio
topic' - no-one ever said it was *compulsory*....


But vinyl has NOT been banned.


Agreed. Although the trite "I just bought a new LP" posts should be were
that to be possible.

You are still welcome to
buy it and listen to it. What more do you need???


Reinforcement that said activity makes him "special".

Others are just sick of hearing the same stupid arguments
for 25 years!


Arguments like those presented by Krakow, which are based on a complete
contradiction of established facts, get very tiring, very fact. The real
question is: "Is Krakow knowlegable enough to be lying"? Or, is he merely
mislead?

If you are talking about me I would be interested to see such a post -
can you point me to one, or is this another example of the distortion
you vinyl-bashers need to reinforce your hopeless *antivinyl* arguments?

Don't be so ridiculous, I'm fed up with seeing/hearing everything being
related to vinyl - all the way down to CDs being made to look like 7
inch 45s....

Not you, Keith. The offender knows who she is.

Vinyl-bashing?

I see playing vinyl for enjoyment sort of like riding in a horse-drawn
carriage for enjoyment.

For practical purposes, vinyl is like a tomb where some interesting music
is entrapped, but can be released if you want to do some work.

Those funny black CDs tricked up to look like 45s are an interesting trip
down memory lane...

I get excited about finding good music well recorded. I've posted maybe
5 or six such posts. I've also commented on finding good sounding CDs.
If you don't want to read about music, then don't. It's very simple.

Jenn said to MusicHaterBorg:

Rumor has it that a future release of Arnii's SnotWare™ will include a
logic loop that will allow him to ignore mentions of music. Until that
happens, though, the Beast will continue to react with violent revulsion
to all posts containing direct references to music.

So do I. OK, so that precludes anything on vinyl because any recording on
vinyl is by definition not well recorded. No skin off my nose.

Did it work when you were seven, Arns?

New rule: Arns has to whip himself from now on. No more using
chiorboys!

I'm not sure I would go that far. I have been harping on the theoretical
advantages of digital audio since 1976. But I have some LPs dating back to
the early 70s that I would say are very well recorded, and provide the same
level of enjoyment as a well recorded CD, even if there is the occasional
tick or pop. Here are some of my favorite LPs:

- Toto IV - Toto (Columbia)
- Abbey Road - Beatles (Mobile Fidelity)
- Capriccio Italien from the 1812 Overture LP - Tchaikovsky (Telarc)
- Aspen Gold - Kingston Trio (Nautilus)
- Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 - Eagles (Asylum)

To name a few. Some recordings, such as Rumours by Fleetwood Mac sound
better on the LP. The 1982 CD remaster simply falls flat - not the
technology, but the implementation. On the other hand, the Mirage CD from
the same era sounds great.

I remember several years ago being demonstrated some vinyl replay at
the home of Derek Scotland of Audiolab fame. I was very surprised by
just how good it was then!. All down to a very good MM pre-amp stage, he
spent a lot of time getting that designed right!. Good replay system
Audiolab and ESL63's, and most important of all there wasn't one single
pressing from the UK!. All were from Germany or the USA and specialised
suppliers at that!.

I remember his opinion of anything to do with any plastic pressing or
moulding process in the UK as,

...."all we're capable of is making children's **** pots!"......

Meaning sadly amongst many other things that the UK doesn't have such
people as plastics engineers;(....

and this was before the days that record producers had the notion that
CD's should all be the "radio edit" versions!....
