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 that is fine, all that is cool. The cleaning lady/guy has got to get in there, no question in my mind...:-)

When arguments lose touch with reality they always end up far into the deep end. Me 2021. :-(

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I'll quote Jimmy Hoffa (sr), "YOU wear me out",

And "argument" is not a good analogy for down right telling people "you don't know what your talking about"

YOU audio2design, keep saying your post are grounded in knowledge, science, and experience. They may well be.. YOU are the only one that cares at this point..Humility AND knowledge go hand in hand.

I know when I see the name, there will be a post to contradict whatever was said.. THAT is the truth. There is NO arguement. ONLY ...  YOUR idea of what WE need to relearn from you. From day one it has NEVER changed...

Sonny wake up... It's worth less in 2021, than in 2020, your losing stock.... It went from "on the radar", for me, to penny stocks and a QUICK sell. We (that's me) are loosing money, with your continued, belittlement of others KNOWLEDGE. Is everybody stupid according to YOU... Shi$ man, You are a BAD TEACHER. If you're not trying to teach what are you trying to do.. INSULT... A + no extra credit for you, you got the highest mark...

No one has EVER pissed off mahgister, you did, insult after insult.

You ain't Almarg.  I was hoping for that.. Such a gentleman.. rare..
He was smart and kind...BUT never told others they were anything but, WELCOME.. try it..

SAVE the back talk Sonny.. wrong guy... We are done after that rant...

Arguing with kenjit...pretty much sealed the deal.

Icing on the cake mahgister...

K is just K....

mahgister needs a cleaning person. LOL BUT loves to share..NOT tell others they are wrong... Just share his wonderful tinkering..

Me I'm gonna take another hit off that joint... Puff Puff pass..

Time to slip the Fadder a fiver.. I need a favor. Lord, MORE patience.
amen!

Time to feed the chickens..


+1000 @oldhvymec He possesses zero humility. A totally obnoxious know it all boor.
Almarg didn't work in the music industry hvymec so perhaps he didn't have the emotional attachment and aversion to all the thick stuff that is spread in audio land that does little to help audiophiles and in many cases sets them back. He obviously had a significant background in electronics, but I have been at this for 3 decades directly in audio both practically and academics.  You may find me arrogant but I expect you were no different in your field.

P.S. may want to look at other threads too. Funny that me and Mijoystyn are the most "critical" on the vinyl/digital argument, but on a recent turntable thread also the ones with some of the more solid advice on what the issue could be.   Heck I even agreed with Miller on another thread :-) ... but in that same thread pointed out that a suggested action won't do what was claimed (physically impossible).   Maybe you should have more issue with those that post opinion as fact?
... and need I remind you hvymec that you made the effort to contact me wrt mahgister .. and not to share kind words about him. Seems you are talking out both sides of your mouth. Sorry but he lectures just like you do, while scolding others. At least I am honest with myself.
It’s a new year! Ring out the old ring in the new. Getting all hyper over hifi gear is nowhere man. Don’t worry be happy! Everybody knows this is nowhere.  A little love and affection in everything you do makes the world a better place with or without you.
