Re: sonic benefit claim

Well, you missed the point. And I know all of vinyl's limitations. When digital can present a more involving musical event than analogue, I'll agree. Please refer to my original post and respond to the mathematical arguments, if you are able. There are those (including posters to this forum) who have shown that, in fact, analogue dynamic range is superior to digital. I'll leave that to them.
My point is that digital is achieved through algoritms for numerical approximation. Inherent in these algorithms are errors of truncation and propagation. These are inevitably in the final product. QED, digital cannot be wholly accurate in it's reproduction of the recorded event. Please limit your response to the argument and leave the hammering of irrelevancies to someone else (though I doubt you can measure up to this, given your history.)
