In Reply to: CDR comparisons of turntables -- is Fremer using an appropriate approach? posted by chris e. on April 17, 2007 at 03:20:47:
A few years ago John Elison was kind enough to send me CDRs of various cartridges playing the same records. That made it possible for me to compare recordings made by a Dynavector XV-1, Shure V15VxMR and AT OC9ML/II.While I don't for a minute think that it was a complete comparison and that I heard "everything" that those cartridges had to offer, it was enough that I was able to judge differences in sound between them.
To base the review of a TT on CDR comparisons doesn't seem right however as it is the subtlest of details that makes the difference.
I don't think CDR recordings capture the "soul" of the device very well.
