Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Depends on what they did

Do you mean "Dynagroove" which was a different process from Dyna Flex? I don't recall any Dyna Flex disks, but the Dynagrooves were horrible. Fortunately I only bought one with my own money.

It's OK to chop off one or two isolated peaks in a track if they are artifacts of multiple waves happening to roll in phase. (There are usually better ways of doing it than straight clipping.) If this is done with skill the result won't be audible and the rest of the track can be boosted. However, if the exact same processing is done repeatedly (e.g. on repeated drum hits) then the changes may be individually inaudible, but taking the track as a whole there will be degradation. It may manifest as a sense of unease or possibly as a conscious feeling that the recording is "unnatural".
