Turntable versus CD... (Off Topic)

Hello Peter,

Yes its difficult isn't it?

If we are talking about music reproduction then we are always going to end up with a subjective judgement as we don't 'hear' with our ears... They are the transducer in the system but we 'hear' with our brains that processes the transducer output for us to experience the sound... the music we experience with our soul...

I can measure objectively most/all of the relevant parameters that characterise the sound I hear... and I can measure objectively most/all of the parameters that characterise the way each piece of equipment in the reproduction chain performs...

But I can only 'guess' i.e. interpolative judgement, at how it will reproduce music... but still at least the vinyl reply chain measures better than the dgital chain for the most/all of the important parameters for music reproduction... as opposed to the important parameters for sound reproduction where the digital chain is better...

James
