Harald - I said dynamic range (meaning the technical measurement) not "dynamics"...sure those Sheffield Lab discs had lots of dynamics. Did anyone ever have that 45rpm jazz mini-album that came free with the Audio Technica Moving Coil cartridge - that had "dynamics"!!! Vinyl can't get close to CD for Dynamic Range. The noise floor is just too high and the max peaks are constrained by the need for the stylus/cutter head to actually stay in the groove. That doesn't mean it can't sound "dynamic" though - that's a whole other story.. -- 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+Stontronics PSU - Altmann JISCO/UPCI - TACT RCS 2.2X with Good Vibrations S/W - MF X-DAC V3/X-PSU/X-10 buffer (Audiocomm full mods)- Linn 5103 - Linn Aktiv 5.1 system (6x LK140's, ESPEK/TRIKAN/KATAN/SEIZMIK 10.5), Townsend Supertweeters, Kimber & Chord cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43045 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
