Indeed. The LP is the equivalent of maybe 12 bits @ 44.1 kHz on a good day, with significant harmonic distortion and wow/flutter. A really good tape can get close to 16/44.1, or almost CD quality (but distortion is still much higher than with a CD). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Julf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98249 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
