This is perfect, thank you this goes straight into my long-term memory bank.
On a tangent, whenever someone mentions LP sounding warmer or whatever I like to point out that I prefer wax cylinders (a.k.a. phonograph cylinders).
Those wax cylinders are a modern hack. The curved surface distorts the real artistic intent. The only way to appreciate the true beauty of sound is a the purity of soot etchings on a phonautogram.
I will add this to my repertoire :)
I had a good laugh listening to the sample at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonautograph
The sound is very pure indeed.
You Edison shill.
