"Arny Krueger" wrote in message ... "Keith G" wrote The problem with your audible noise and distortion claims is that they are based on what - a Rega plank and an M75 or somesuch? No, they are based on extensive listening to a wide variety of high end vinyl setups at a variety of audiphile homes and high end audio shows. The problem with vinyl is that there is so much detail to be had Only if you consider tics, pops, hissing, rumble, flutter, wow, and various other nasties to be "detail". |

I haven't posted here or read too much here, but I can attest to the fact that there is one regular poster here who is fond of calling people "vinyl bigots" if they simply state that they like the sound of some LPs. Lame attempt by Jenn to pretend that her posting history never existed. Lame attempt by Arny to pretend that he can show anything to the contrary. We've been here before Jenn. I document, you deny, I learn that you aren't worth the time. lol Yes, we've been here before. You SAY that you have documented, but you never have. You're dishonest. Show where you have documented. |

You forgot the *boiled cabbage* smell... Here, never mind all that - take a pull at these clips which are still on my webpage (I put them there for some wattock who ran off squealing when I put him to the test): http://www.moirac.adsl24.co.uk/Langu...r%20Clip-1.mp3 http://www.moirac.adsl24.co.uk/Langu...r%20Clip-2.mp3 One is from the vinyl, the other from the CD and I don't remember which is which - you tell me! Then tell what the word is in the phrase 'happy as xxxx' (8 seconds in) - it could be one of two possibles and I know which I think it is...?? (Or you could just runn orf squealing as well....) |

Well Keith, as delusional and dishonest as you are, granting an opinon like this is very risky. You can easily be your usual contrary self and say that I'm wrong, no matter what's right. Not only that, but the clips are badly made - clip 2 was obviously clipped during transcription from the LP.... Ooops! They ABX as being different. To me the biggest clue was the better transient response in the bass on the CD. But the CD is odd, it has some EMI recorded on it around 15720 Hz. The music itself sounds odd, like this was an old analog tape transcribed to CD. |

Well Keith, as delusional and dishonest as you are, granting an opinon like this is very risky. Given the *idiot reversal* that kicks in when it's you, those childish insults come back as compliments.... You can easily be your usual contrary self and say that I'm wrong, no matter what's right. Your paranoia's dripping, Arny - you might want to put a cloth under it.... Not only that, but the clips are badly made - clip 2 was obviously clipped during transcription from the LP.... Barely and only very briefly - doesn't bother me and was probably hastily recorded as a *WTF, I'm playing it anyway*...??? (I get busy hun, and don't always have time to set up properly if the need isn't there - for instance, right now I'm hassled; I'm halfway through cutting the grass and then I want a trip out on the bike while the sun's out!!) Ooops! They ABX as being different. To me the biggest clue was the better transient response in the bass on the CD. Oh, sure.... But the CD is odd, it has some EMI recorded on it around 15720 Hz. The music itself sounds odd, like this was an old analog tape transcribed to CD. Well, you're right on the money there - look at this snap: http://www.moirac.adsl24.co.uk/Heartbreak.jpg That album is 26 years old... (Note the *barrel distortion* in the pic - it's a fairly extreme wide angle and I haven't got time to feck about changing lenses - does that make the lens useless...??) [To self: **** me, I post more 'Show N Tell' to substantiate my assertions on this tossy little newsgroup thn anyone in the history of Usenet and this thick, arrogant **** tells me I'm *dishonest*...!!??] Anyway, shape up Arny - you haven't answered the main question: What is the word in 'happy as *what'*?? I think I know what it is and there's only one word really makes sense in the UK, but (it's an American disc) there's a choice of two it might be.... Anybody? |

OK, that's what it says in the sleeve notes and is a phrase that didn't make sense to me until we looked it up, but that's not what we *hear*...!!! I'll have to get Plowie to lend me his milkman.... |

FWIW Keith, I don't know if you regard me as a 'cringing lurker' or not, but I don't particularly want your opinions "directed" to me, so count me out. I gave up trying to discuss various things with you because of the kind of behaviour you have shown in threads like this. I do sometimes scan your postings but have decided I'd be wasting my time to respond. Slainte, Jim -- Change 'noise' to 'jcgl' if you wish to email me.
