I noticed today what I consider to be a new high in absurdity regarding cellphone videos of audio systems:
Thinking that one can compare accurately or meaningfully in a completely unfamiliar system in a completely unfamiliar room the sound of analog tape playback of an original analog recording to the sound of analog vinyl playback of an original analog recording by recording digitally a video of both of them to a generic ADC in a cellphone and then playing back digitally the video through a generic DAC on a computer.
Ron, why not post a link to that absurd comment? I think I might’ve been the one who made it after I watched a very interesting and long video from @bonzo75 of a Russian system that had both reel to reel and vinyl playback. The music was great and the system sounded quite good but there were differences that are really quite easy to hear. Others expressed they’re opinion about my comments.
Here’s a link to my comment and post # 283: https://www.whatsbestforum.com/thre...-olympian-vs-avantgarde-trio-vs.35006/page-15
Perhaps you can explain why you think my comments reach a new height of absurdity. If you’re not referring to my comments about that video, I apologize and request a reference or link to what you are talking about.
Edit: How do you know this is a cell phone video?
