Wrong Arny. As I've said many times before, it's a
matter of "picking your poison". It's ALL artificial. I
can listen through a few tics. I can't listen through a
recorded violin sound that resembles an instrument made
of plastic.

You think digital does that to a recording of a violin?

I don't know, but I've never experienced that on LP, and
I have on CD.

Obviously Jenn, you lack my 55 years, more or less, of listening to vinyl.

That's true. I'm only 51.


For the first 36 years of my life, basically vinyl was all that we had, and
it often sucked mightily even though our player technology for the last 10
or so years was essentially what is available today.

During that time I heard plenty of recordings that made music sound like it
was played on plastic instruments.

I've heard lots of bad reproduction via LP, but bad in different ways
than some digital.


Perhaps your CD player is broken. Even my Arcam
doesn't do that.

Nope, checked out fine 6 mo. ago. Besides, I'm speaking
about all the CD players I've heard.

Obviously a problem with lack of experience,

lol A statement for which you have no evidence.

but I think there is a little
bias and hysteria tossed in.

Of course you do.

Nothing like recently blowing nearly a $grand
on a vinyl player to keep the illusion going.

You're entitled to your opinion.
