Article: "Spin Me Round: Why Vinyl is Better Than Digital"

I am sharing this for those with an interest. I no longer have vinyl, but I find the issues involved in the debates to be interesting. This piece raises interesting issues and relates them to philosophy, which I know is not everyone's bag. So, you've been warned. I think the philosophical ideas here are pretty well explained -- this is not a journal article. I'm not advocating these ideas, and am not staked in the issues -- so I won't be debating things here. But it's fodder for anyone with an interest, I think. So, discuss away!

All beginnings are Pandora’s box and all this almost always end in Sorcerer’s apprentice dance, why?


Because all beginning’s manifest themselves as art before becoming a science and at the end, becoming mostly a technology...

In the beginning comes the poet, after come the great scientist and at the end the technocrat...

Why is this so ? Because the great scientist can think poetically but speak prosaically...

The technocrat think and speak a dead prose... This resume the story of science and civilizations...


«I deduce that sheeps always speak prose in any language»- Groucho Marx


Thanks hilde45,for these marvellous metaphors.... I wish you the best God can create.... Happy New Year....😊
Sometimes Pandora’s Box is just a large can of worms.
Right.... But some constant noise dont change the tune, no more than a false note can modify the melody...

Pandora’s box or can of worms....It is up to your free will to choose...

The left ears process the duration of tones... Not the changing tones...

Then your remark are not surprizing.... It is always the same echoing... 😛

You must use the other ear for balance....



Happy new Years....


Why do yo say you are out?

To put the burden of your emotion to someone else back?

I dont understand your negative reaction...

I was polite, and only arguing my point...

And facing the fanatics of digital or analog, i reasonnably argue for the judgement of the human ears evaluating timbre perception in all these different rooms and analog and digital systems...

Between digital or vinyl, i refuse to chose in the absolute.... Each one has his own experience of timbre perception and i refuse to declared turntable afficionados a deluded group and i refuse to critic all digital implementation for the sake of some turntable...

Is balanced thinking a defect ?

Is my not so perfect English a problem? i already apologize for that...

My humor is not to the taste of everyone but i make my best...

Sulking in a corner is not a mature reaction to arguments...

Anyway ....

I wish you the best for the year....
