Mike - it all depends...you can produce crap sounding recordings in Abbey Road (say) if you really want to... likewise some really great sounding recordings were made in very simple studios. Usually professional control rooms are built and engineered to a very high quality. What the producer and artist then get up to is another matter, but that's nothing to do with the equipment. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37059 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
