Peace then, Bob. I don't really understand "dynamic range" and didn't instigate its use, and I'm not defending it. You're welcome to try stopping its use, but you'd need to discuss the concept of "herding cats" with Len Paris :)
"Asshole" versus "Arsehole" is the same situation as "color" versus "colour". It's the same thing, but it would be as regionally inappropriate for me to use your spelling as for you to use mine. I was both on topic (photographic content) and on subject (the first question did not discuss sound reproduction, that reference didn't arise until several posts along the thread). Perhaps we are too alike for comfort and that's why we bristle at each other. Anyway, Happy New Year, the last has been fun :) regards, Anthony Farr
