I do appreciate the detail -- but I am sure that a few years ago 
there was a switch to digital output (and input)

And looking at the specs on the latest Macbook at the Apple 
site, I read

Combined optical digital output/analog lineĀ out (minijack)


http://www.apple.com/macbook/specs.html

So I don't think I'm imagining it:-) At least the digital part. 
Since most gigs I go to (not many) feature Macbook Pros sitting 
there to do something or other to the sound, I imagined that 
they were the best ones to do the job. I doubt bands are that 
bothered about brand loyalty when it comes to a gig (surely?)

But seriously, this 24 bit recording does sound a great deal 
warmer than other recordings I have, from any source. So I do 
wonder if they have done a better-than-average job on this. It's 
the first time I've felt like digital sound was worth the switch 
from vinyl.

I'll do some more careful tests (when it's not the middle of the night)....
