[QUOTE="Steerpike, post: 539290, member: 807"] That's an interesting way of describing it. I can't say what is wrong with MPEG processing - it doesn't show limited frequency response, reduced dynamic range, no obvious harmonic distortion - none of the things that characterise bad conventional recordings as bad. MP3 recording just don't thrill me, they don't sound like I HAVE to continue listening. Conversely, last week I was listening to "Sky 2", recently bought on LP, although I have had the CD for decades. Yet again, the LP sounded so real, so easy to be beguiled into thinking the guitars were right there in the room. [/QUOTE]
