Re: Microphone Rise Time- Is this the key?

Joey, 10us risetime is a -3dB response at 35kHz with a single pole rolloff. This is barely possible with 30 ips analog recording, quality vinyl reproduction, SACD or DVD 24/96kHz recording. Most of the 'delay' associated with the risetime is JUST DELAY. That is: Total delay of the event, so it does not effect the sound. However CD cannot approach this ideal, and in practice is much worse. Speakers can have extended bandwith, but usually are not that good. An important point is that there are many factors that make a difference in audio reproduction, risetime is one of them.
