Perhaps playing a silent record is going to far :) ... but it's a fair
point.
Still, if your file's digitized from vinyl you would get all the
benefits of the medium in the audio quality too, I guess?
I've never had any comment that the sound coming from my laptop is any
different to that coming from the deck sat next to it when playing at
a club.
I digitise my own vinyl and mostly use wavs/aiffs and if I use MP3s
then they are high bitrate. I was worried when making the move from
vinyl to digital that sound quality would suffer so I paid attention
to it.
Most DJs are so bad with sound engineering (yes, even famous ones - we
can all name a few) and most club turntables are so badly set up that
it's always going to be difficult to tell the difference anyway. Not
that most club PAs are up to much anyway.
Anyway, I can feel a telling off from Francis coming so I better shut
up :)
