Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

"Real data." Hmm... was it "real data" that led to the invention of the phonograph? Or of the record? Or...

...of improved sound boxes? Better pressing materials? Superior cartridges?

Can you name *even one* aspect of progress in phonography's first, oh, eighty years that resulted from "real data", as opposed to people more-or-less messing around to get better sound?

And even if you do come up with one, does not the preponderance of improvement today, as it always has, result from experimentation, rather than data?
