addendum

In the 30 years of progress section, I forgot to mention an entire technology: digital storage and high resolution formats. What we can retrieve now from an SACD or blu-ray audio was unthinkable 30 years ago. I know the vinyl people will disagree, but our modern storage and retrieval far exceeds the original fidelity of analogue systems, with dynamic range and S/N that surpasses what one typically hears at a LIVE concert.

Also falling under the miniaturization category: SMT whereby an entire circuit of individual components can be condensed into a tenth or less the area it formerly required, with shorter signal paths and all the advantages that confers.

I'm sure there are other advances I've overlooked. There are plenty of downsides as well, but let's not dwell on those.

Peace,
