Someday, someone will invent the perfect recording and playback medium that will accurately recreate the exact performance as it was intended ... and someone will not like that either! LOL. All good points here. Reel to Reel was always supposed to be the best, then vinyl was really good, with the proper equipment. Portability gave us 8 tracks and cassettes and given the environment in most cars and road noise, the sound was as good as it could be I suppose. The CD's came along and people thought it was great, not realizing the A to D and D to A stuff that had to happen and the losses associated with that process, at least you didn't have to worry about the tape getting all caught up in the machine and ruining it! Then we just got rid of any kind of physical medium and made it magic. Now we are back to vinyl, as all the digital ears get to hear it for the first time and love that sound (the distortion that Notes was referring to is very pleasant to most ears). Who knows what the future will bring us. Can't wait to see it though.


My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.
