^^^ not to mention silly...
:lol:

it amazes me how much the quest for 'quality' and 'fidelity' have been replace by a search for lo-fi and distorted 'warmth'.... cranky mechanical devices.. which have been replace because of their faults..
(for instance in the case of the cassettes... signal degradation after each play... in the case of vinyl.. weight and size.... although the vinyl still has it's merits.. )
the digital era is in it's peak... sign of the times eh ?
