'50 year stagnation in regard to sound quality'

that's not what I see but maybe I'm just not looking where you are

there's been ongoing refinement and advancements in speaker [driver] technology, amplification [despite the SS vs. tubes thing], playback front ends of all manner ... digital streaming / DACS in particular ... a revival in vinyl and getting it right

the loudness wars were left behind quite some time ago [now it's a battle over compression and pitch processing in pop] yet there's strong parallel efforts for naturalistic recording technique, a return to 'old school' methods, in addition to commensurate advancements in recording tech with those ideals kept in mind

so maybe you're not looking where I am, or dismissing it out of hand

there's even greater access to quality instruments than ever before as well as media platforms to get musicians actually heard around the world

ah well, now you'll tell me to get off your lawn right?

regards,
