Dear
@prof : First than all I need to share with the Agon moderators what's means the word: ignorance, to avoid removes posts where that word is used by any one:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IgnoranceNow, you had this " battle " losted from the begining of the thread when the OP was and is not willing not to learn but even gives no single true fact where his thread statements are founded.
Ignorance is the " mother " of all wars and here we have several gentlemans with extremely low knowledge levels on many audio/MUSIC citical subjects and no one of them posted ( till today ) any single fact that could proves what they posted. Only subjective bla, bla, bla,etc with out true and serious foundations.
As I posted the issue here is not digital vs analog ( or any other discussions as: tube vs SS electronics or MM vs LOMC cartridges, etc, etc. ) but a really critical fact of so lower knowledge levels and it's really disappointed that in an analog forum we live that way. Yes, many gentlemans in that low end 15% and 70% average/mediocrity of the universe I pointed out before.
This is for the Agon moderator gentlemans to avoid removes posts for any one uses the word mediocrity:
https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/mediocrity here a confirmation:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/mediocrityaverage=mediocrity. ( 3 )
Btw, we listen and perceive " sound " not only what pick up by the ears but what's pick up by the whole body: skin, hair, bones and everything through the all body that's full of individual ( trillions. ) of nervous terminations ( thousands of them by mm2. ) that works as zeros and ones, are not continuous. We are a digital very very old " technology " that did not started with digital audio but millions of years when appeared the human been on ou planet named earth.
