Unless you where there at the studio or where the mics where at the concert good luck. Even then how could you remember what each sound was like. On almost all of my albums you can hear instruments a little to lean, fat, or just right from cut to cut. Which one is right. In regards to this measurement thing why are the people in the know going back to those crappy tubes.Before all the math guys going crazy on me think about this. What if by getting the perfect sine wave (as we know it) we screw up 100 things we can not measure yet. Has science and technology come to the end of expansion and understanding.
In the final game it is about what it sounds like. Most systems I have heard at high end stores are just wrong. The tone is not even close. Way to bright. Bass doing one thing the rest of the music doing something else. I knew this long before I started building all my own stuff.
So ask yourself a question. Would you want the system that make the piano sound like a piano regardless of the measurements or that nice graph system that did not? So give me tubes, transformers, chokes, albums, and all the rest of that old crap. Call it beauty or hi fi, measure it, do what you will. At the end of the day it will make you rock or cry like real live music!!!
Enjoy Tom
