Not the truth, but what you are going to present as the truth
to a guy who, oh ...
-holds two master's degrees in related fields
-worked with turntable manufacturer John Michell
-designs his own anti-aliasing filters for CD production
-designs his own phonostages
-studied disk cutters and their circuits and problems into some detail
-studied music mastering practices (then and now) in some detail
-talks to cartridge designers from time to time
-talks to mastering engineers from time to time
-knows a thing or two about auditory perception (though not enough by far)
-is involved with digital and analogue design every day
-knows the sound of analogue and digital multitrack and mastering tapes in the studio
-knows the difference between objective facts and subjective preferences (both are valuable and valid)
-understands that 'audio' is one big misunderstanding
-has respect for analogue/LP's achievements, despite its drawbacks
-has respect for digital/CD's achievements, despite its drawbacks
-understands that the medium or technology is pretty irrelevant provided one uses high production standards and displays competence at the recording/mastering stages
Sweet dreams ...
