Re: I think a number of folks

Dear All
The thing is that most people other than the rock in a groove guys catered for in other forums. Are judging the material
at 16bit 44.1khz. and some of the artefacts produced by files converted to this standard from much higher data flows sound a lot worse than decent apogee 16 bit dacs input to a DAW at 16bit to red book CD. Thus the continuing
high second hand value of the old 8 channel units.
Perceived quality has a great deal to do with the frequencies from
say 100hz to 10khz I don’t know of anybody who hears great differences in audio quality between super tweeters its just either there or not. I am a great deal more impressed by the sound of an RCA 44 with an OP-6 pre amp from 1938 than I am
with the sound of a modern transformerless Chinese transistor condenser. Thus the price difference second hand. You see its down to the fact that bats for all the guano they produce have never organised them selves in any way financially and until such time as they become a major force on Wall St will not be guiding the audio industry second hand market. Although they will probably be influencing new equipment and review pages in recording magazines. Go on please a passing Bat.
