Re: Back to analogue with Tony Faulkner

Sorry, you are erroenous. According to the Nyquist Shannon theorem, the sampling rate of redbook CD is sufficient to capture ALL information uto 22.05 KHZ. SInce most of us can hear only till 16-17 Khz, that;s way beyond what we need.
The digital sampling analogy you make is appealing to the layperson, but incorrect.
Also, please remember, grooves on vinyl are just ANOTHER way of encoding an analog signal, and in fact quite inferior to redbook CD for capturing the information in the original signal.
Now you may LIKE the iperfections of analog, as I do indeed for SETs, but in the interest of intellectual honesty, you should acknowledge its inferiority in terms of measurable performance.
SAme thng with SETs, I happen to LIKE the sound of SETs, but I accept they suck performance wise. ML
