Indeed, I agree, overall a nice article. I like that little embedded
video talking about the limitations of vinyl mastering. Indeed that RIAA
curve is nasty and the old LP technology is full of compromises we have
taken for granted with the freedom of digital. (Makes "issues" like
jitter laughable!)

I think the main message about reminding the vinyl lovers that -LPs are
less accurate- than a -good -CD is an important one that is quite
clearly based in fact. Even though I do not own a turntable any more, a
number of friends have bought TT's in the last 3 years and I've had the
pleasure to listen to some excellent vinyl rigs as a result. They can
sound very good and obviously the experience of the physical object,
playback ritual, and large artwork can certainly provide a different
(and some would argue richer) experience.

Maybe its time to restore the old TT to function . But you dont need
your own you canndl a lot of "vinyl rips".

There ate also playback issues the pickup have like -20 -25 dB of
channel separation in the midrange ? And tracking the inner groove ?
