Gramophone, etc. and read a bad review of a release that just cost the company tens of thousands of $$ to produce can certainly handle my humble opinion. Your corrective posts are just silly.I also respect Mr. Bishops craft and survival in the business for almost 30 years now?
I've just begun to wonder if all of us, producers and listeners have forgotten how live music really sounds. I also think that the common dismissal of vinyl's strengths as "euphony" is condescending. Ironically the word has been used to describe SACD sound as well.
Every project my colleagues and I work on starts as live music. Part of the session preparation is to first hear the music performed in rehearsal and in-concert, sometimes over several concerts. How else would one know where to start? Post-concert meetings take place between the conductor, soloists, producer and engineer before a single note is recorded.Recorded music will not fool anyone into thinking it's live music. Since every form of recorded music has its own "euphony," I'm not sure I see how calling vinyl playback "euphonic" is condescending. I apologize if you took it that way, but it certainly was not intended to be.

As I said surround (IMO and system) sounds a lot more like live than stereo (from any source I've heard) and hence I think Mr. Bishop is on the right track. You never hear me talking about vinyl euphony.
