And then we'd have to modify all recording techniques so no compression or other studio trickery was used as well. We'll never get "real" because we're trying to faithfully reproduce a recording, not a live experience. I'm not saying that we can create perfect audio gear today if we measured it better. We can't because as you say the mechanisms we use for cost reasons are flawed and we can only get so close with them as the basis. -- CardinalFang You're only young once, but you can be immature forever... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28080 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
