"I can understand how one piece of equipment might make the rhythmic element of music more pronounced by clearly producing transients and may reproduce the “timing†more accurately by keeping a steady speed. I suppose its okay to say the equipment has “PraT†because it does a good job of reproducing these rhythmic qualities of the performance. But isn’t it sort of like saying, “my amp has a very expressive vibrato,†just because it reproduces that quality in a recording of Maria Callas?"I also find some 1/2 speed mastered pressings seem to impede PRaT as well.

- Wilson: beautifully-stated. Perhaps it would be better to suggest certain equipment impedes PRaT. - jdaniel 23:25:22 05/09/07 (1)
