Re: YOU CAN Be Sure About the changes in air pressure

>In recording, engineers are fully aware of hearing foibles and often double check so products like the pebbles, magic wood blocks, stupidly expensive cable etc would never fly as you can’t generally hear that kind of stuff if you double check (A vs B with no prior knowledge).<

I've never seen or heard of the pebbles in a recording studio but high definition cables are part of some of the best audiophile label studios as are tubes. Some of the things objectivists laugh about were used in the very recordings they laud while some of those recordings suffer as a result of the studio cutting corners.

>The true blue audiophile with a fully implanted hook would chime in “yeah, recording engineers, look at today’s music, look at the CD ugh”<

The "true blue audiophile with a fully implanted hook" would be correct. The sad fact is that while the recording engineers are sound oriented, the producers who run the show are not. Taking most of the major labels and trying to make comparisons between home and pro audio is futile. As for the CD...well, it's often pretty bad sounding - not that I blame the medium. It's not perfect but then again, neither is the LP. One of them did claim to be, however.
