i guess i've been spoiled?

i guess PRaT to me = MUSIC. how could one have music without pace, rhythm and timing?

i suppose that as long as i've been involved with audio (which is far less than many around here, i'm sure), if i listened to some component(s) and PRaT was missing, then I just assumed there were major fundamental problems.

however, i felt (and still feel) like pace, rhythm, and timing are connected to MUSIC not to COMPONENTS.

also, i'm not sure if your post is intending to say this, but are you saying that no belt-drive has PRaT (if we even accept the notion that a component can have it or not -- versus just fail to convey PRaT that was within the recording or "kill the music"), whereas all idlers and DDs do?

i'm not sure i believe that in an absolute sense, as i've heard all sorts of terrible equipment using most any kind of technology...while i've also heard experienced that good examples of each technology. it may take more $ or better engineering to get any particular solution to work, but i think they all have their merits.

again...i'm just wondering why PRaT gets associated to a device rather than to music.
