to get the message across?I'm not talking about playback devices and their designers/designs!
I'm talking about the record itself and the recording process. Both are loaded with compromises and trade-offs. If people like Fremer had a genuine interest in vinyl, they would cover all aspects of that technology, not only the subjectively positive ones.
Audio is not art, audio is engineering and it's engineers, hence chart-makers and number crunchers, who developed vinyl, and they didn't do that with their ears. If you read the early vinyl related papers in JAES you would see that charts and numbers are all over the place.
As for the last sentence in my previous post: I don't think I had got the grammar wrong, but what I intended to say was : imagine we have digital, we get used to that sound. Then vinyl comes up, fresh, new, with claims such as "perfect sound forever". Don't you think, given the fact that there's a basic difference in sound, that vinyl would have been bashed all day long?
Since you are mentioning Schröder, I have followed the patenting procedure closely, since it had been treated here where I work. The patent was finally granted, but Schröder was not the first to invent that magnetic bearing feature! If the case had been treated by me, the granted claims would have been very different. But it's a niche in a niche industry, so nobody cared.
