High Sunshine,
I am incline to agree with you.
In the 60's and 70's, allot of the recordings were made on recording equipment that had vacuum tubes in it.
This is where that warm deep sound came from.
There are still peaces of equipment that could be bought today that still uses vacuum tubes to enhance the recording of music. But it all falls apart when the signal goes in to either a computer and or a CD recorder.
Because those machines, converts the signal from analog to digital.
The only way to counter react that is, to put the tubes on the input and the output of the computer's sound card and or the CD recorder. As far as CD recorders for both studio and hi phi use, no manufacturer has thought about doing that yet. Because if they did, the music would sound a whole lot better then it would without the tubes not being in the signal path.
My best regards.
 John.

also tom, and others, the sound that was produced back in the 60s,70s,80s
has that warm, deep sound that has depth, spectural, clariety, and a sound
that is more human then digital sounding recordings. of todays  cd quality
music.
The analog sound that came out of the past years in the 60s,70s, has a lot
of clariety that todays equipment doesn't have in my own thoughts.

High Tom,
I think the change took place in the mid 80's when CD's replaced 8 track
tapes.
Also at the same time, you couldn't buy music on open reels anymore either.
To me, the open real tapes sounded a whole lot better then 8 track and
cassette tapes put together.
My best regards.
 John.

In my opinion, I don't think they'll ever be able to re-create that sound
they had back then as the world of "digital equipment" just doesn't allow
for it! But even a lot of the music of the seventies still had that good,
wide, stereo; I don't know when it changed..and don't really know why it
changed!
