[QUOTE="LIVESOUND, post: 1110360, member: 778"] I agree with both you and [B]fdlsys[/B]. I would, however, like to add that the success or otherwise of a turntable to control resonance generated by the stylus tracking the groove determines whether it is good or great. Theoretically, records do wear and will do so at a much higher rate on lower quality turntables. On a high performance turntable, even old dirty records can sound quite good. This is because non-resonant players manage to substantially reduce groove noise, and deliver music from a black background, similar to digital. Reviewers of the Discovery RS and Kronoscope RS arms all noted how quietly they performed, even to not being able to hear the stylus drop onto the surface of the record. That is something that I would like to experience first hand. To those who say that vinyl is an imperfect playback medium, accepts its faults and just enjoy the music; I say that we have come a long way from the days of wind-up gramophones and metal horns, but have not yet reached the pinnacle. There is no harm in discussing possible ways of getting there. [/QUOTE]
