This is the first exhibition of references combining components and human hearing.  I hope that’s what this is… @Fair good job converting your experience (thinking, research etc) and perspectives (paradigmatic, structured, exploratory etc) here. ...

My posting issue was not vinyl versus digital except in as much as they are different, and can be use as comparators. Not better. The diversity of situations from recording to playback are very clearly well described in the article from thatspeake...
