TT Dynamic Range meter "lies" about vinyl's dynamic rang
Reply #23 –
I couldn't agree more.
In addition to that, and while this may be extraneous to your point:
ABXing vinyl from its digital master is generally assumed. When armed with the knowledge of "DR" figures, differences generally get attributed to perception of differences in dynamic range. When those specific differences don't exist, but the obvious unrelated tells do, expectation bias can (and often does) prevail. This is especially true when the imagined difference supports the point being argued.
Back to the original topic, does anyone want to add to the wiki article on vinyl myths?
