Why would CD of digitally recorded music sound inferior the LP if the recording was originally 16 bit at 44.1kHz if digital to digital copying (at least without any re-sampling or alterations to bit depth) is obviously less lossy than digital to analogue copying. The fact that you even have to ask ...

Actually, vinyl does not offer the same dynamic range as 24 bit Oh dear God. I better throw out my LP player and all my LPs. "Vinyl does not offer the same dynamic range as 24 bit". What a shame. Is that why vinyl sounds so good? And what do you need the 300 db dynamic range of 24 bit dig...

Some people are so used to the distortions in analogue recording that they think it is more faithful the original sound than without it, these are the problems with trusting you own ears.

trusting your own ears is subjective So? Then DON'T trust your ears. Turn your ears off when listening to music and impress the world with your technical knowledge and continue to discuss technical reference points. Do you have a record player at home? How many LPs do you have in your collection? H...

Myrtone: I know all about that. Don't get too caught up on technical explanations and details. Trust your ears. I trust mine. And to my ears even when the source is digital, vinyl still sounds better. I have yet to hear a CD of digitally recorded music that sounded better than the LP. The LP wins e...

It would help me understand if I knew what you mean by sound digital, even if I think you know. Ever encountered the three letter code that used to be quite common on CDs, AAD means that the original multitrack recording was analogue and prepared mix are analogue recordings. ADD means that the orig...

George Bush said God told him to invade Iraq

I assume sooner or later God will instruct Bush to invade EYE-Ran. How convenient for the Master of the Universe that
God wants him to attack and invade all Middle Eastern countries.

My latest poem:

Master Of The Universe

George Bush is master of the universe
George Bush is God of all heavens
George Bush is supreme king and ruler of earth
George Bush is eternal
George Bush will live forever
