Does it simulate the other things like frequency dependent channel separation ,phase variations and a slight acoustic feedback :) The background noise has an interesting feature it has something akin to dimensionality . Vinyl never gets as "dry" as a more perfect system it never simulates a point IME . I mean it's somewhat simulates 3D on its own even with bone dry source material can be some very low level post echo from the acoustic feedback that always exists . Resonances from the platter etc . I also experimented with removing the box around the sub chassi of one of my players and also removed the bottom plate on one player . All this significantly change their sound . Wonder what mechanics are involved when the chassi or plint have a sound ? I have Systemdeck with bruer tone arm and XYZ and ortofon pickups somewhere , but as i've sold all my vinyl it's rarely used . I was young when CD took over in so I opted out at 300-400 vinyls and sold them and gone digital since .. For a while i even rresisted CD and was hooked on vinyl . I also recall some of the older cheaper CD players not sounding particularly good . One Yamaha a friend had even had audible high frequency swirling noises like aliasing artefacts !? on some material . I very cheap soundcard from a decade ago can exhibit the same thing my old PC had that tones from 19-22 kHZ produced artefacts . Test this if you have a really crummy soundcard , or by all means try these tones on your hifi especially if your DAC is of some kind of "unorthodox design" :D ( meaning voodoo crap ) http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_aliasing.php -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
