What's natural about HiFi! :-) I have a Musical Fidelity DAC and like it - it's good value for money. I'd never claim that any of my gear is natural though - it generates a sound that is pleasing to my ears is the best you could say. I suppose if you do listen to purely natural sound recordings then you could claim that, but I haven't heard many new groups running free in their natural environment to be able to say whether it's good or not :-) I did see the Sex Pistols and the Clash a few times and they aren't natural on vinyl, I assure you! The thought of Mr Lydon running carefree in the Sarenghetti does present an interesting thought though. Joking aside, is being close to vinyl ideal or have our ears just got tuned to that sound as being right? I have a Pink Triangle setup and often think it sounds smoother and more cohesive, but is that because my ears have got trained to a smoother presentation?
