Jack, real leather smells better but in the car it too gets hot (in AZ). Cloth is best!

So in short order we've had "no room needs treatment" and "vinyl sucks". Wow. Did Agon get hacked by foreign agitators or something? Just don't take the bait folks. But yeah, you have to admire Claypool's skills if nothing else and that Buckethead sure is fast. But I like the percussion best of all. |
The YouTube guy is an air-head. He's even got a stupid haircut - bumped into a buzz-saw and a can of axle grease. He's not saying anything that wasn't already said by hundreds of guys old enough to be his grand dad. He imagines he's the first person to think of this. He doesn't talk about the sound at all. Total waste of six minutes listening to him. |
Once you get to a high-end digital system like Grim Audio MU1 streamer + Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC there is unfortunately no more role for Vinyl in my setup. I say unfortunately because I wanted Vinyl to win... I therefore organized a session with 3 (musicophiles but not audiophiles) friends and did a blind test. To make things even harder I played my very best Japanese pressings... Digital gave them more pleasure. One of the 3 friends is a well-known baroque orchestra conductor: he found Digital to have more realism in terms of timbres, staccato/legato, dynamics. Ditto for percussions which he found more realistic. RIP Vinyl for me, but VERY respectful for all the others who love it. My amazing PTP model 12 (Lenco-based) with Schick 12” arm and Lyra Delos cartridge is officially looking for a new home... 😎 https://6moons.com/audioreviews/lenco2/1.html |
