I'm not talking about right or wrong; I'm talking about acknowledging
that there possibly are audible differences in the analogue and digital
"sound" and that a preference for one or the other is totally subjective
personal preference. I myself love the smell of aliased digital filters
in the morning, but I will defend the preference of those with the squidy
analogue love.
Best,
Chris.
