"The very high high frequencies tend to be triangle overtones and air - not much in the way of actual sound there."
Triangle overtones, and if I may, ambient cues which help define the soundspace and the air that comes with good vinyl playback.
I am not sure exactly which nit you are picking, but I think my original point stands.
Something I have become acutely aware of among my audiophool friends is that changes in hearing with age are not linear. One guy's system which sounds bright and a bit etched to me, sounds mighty fine to him.
Thanks for thinking about what I said.
Changes in hearing over time also include changes in how we hear pitch and sensitivity to volume level, especially, apparently, with music in the upper register of say...massed fiddles.
