High Sunshine,
I still have one of those old vacuum tube systems.
What you said about the CD, is true on one hand.
But on the other hand, it isn't.
Some CD's, are being recorded at 32 bits with PCM encoding which yields a
way better sound.
But however, they are only sailing them to the AUDIO PHIAL people.
The sound quality of CD's that are made like that, are top notch.
But don't expect to find CD's like these in WAL-MART, you won't find them
there.
I had allot of luck finding them at a specialty stereo shop.
My best regards.
John.
PS. I still have a pare of those speakers, they sound really nice!

you know brent, and others.
todays music systems that are purely digital, are a bit if not totally
disapointing.
from what i know aabout digital files such as those that are made from
cds.
the quality is what you get, if i remember correctly the underlying
actuall, audio is a wav file that has been made in 16 bit, 44100 khz
standards such as the red book standard.
The tube sound or vacume tube/valve sound of the earlier systems, made
sound
quality stars above any digital sounding system i have heard.
I am in my 30's and can remember a lot of stereo equipment from those
days.
what i would love to see is a very high quality audio file stereo system
with ripping aviable in the unit, with a way to transfer the ripped
files
to a portable device/ or computer.
Also on another note digital speakers vs analog speakers i will take the
analog speakers over the digital ones any day.
the frequency response of a pure analog speaker system also sounds much
better.
does anyone remember the panasonic thruster 750's? for analog speakers?

also tom, and others, the sound that was produced back in the
60s,70s,80s
has that warm, deep sound that has depth, spectural, clariety, and a
sound
that is more human then digital sounding recordings. of todays cd
quality
music.
The analog sound that came out of the past years in the 60s,70s, has a
lot
of clariety that todays equipment doesn't have in my own thoughts.

High Tom,
I think the change took place in the mid 80's when CD's replaced 8 track
tapes.
Also at the same time, you couldn't buy music on open reels anymore
either.
To me, the open real tapes sounded a whole lot better then 8 track and
cassette tapes put together.
My best regards.
John.

In my opinion, I don't think they'll ever be able to re-create that
sound
they had back then as the world of "digital equipment" just doesn't
allow
for it! But even a lot of the music of the seventies still had that
good,
wide, stereo; I don't know when it changed..and don't really know why
it
changed!
