RE: A Superb Direct to Disc Recording

I never said that one format is superior to another format. What I said was that my DSD128 recordings of vinyl records sound identical to vinyl records to me and others who've heard them. Therefore, if you like the sound of vinyl, you can have that same sound by simply recording a vinyl record with a hi-res digital recorder.

Another thing I said was that Peter Ledermann's playable master lacquers sounded even better to me than any vinyl I've heard. Therefore, if you want a digital recording that sounds as good or even better than vinyl, you can record a playable master lacquer to DSD128 or even DSD256 and you can thereby have the sound that you like from a hi-res digital recording.

As a result, I believe a record company could make hi-res digital recordings that sound just like vinyl and would therefore be more convenient than vinyl and cost less than vinyl. Furthermore, a record company could also afford to buy the very finest turntable, cartridge and phono stage, which should satisfy the most demanding vinyl enthusiast.

This is all I'm suggesting.

Happy Listening!
John Elison
