		BRAVO!!!  BRAVO!!!!

I listen to new albums on my 11 year old receiver (JVC), my 5 year old
speakers (Kenwoods), my 4 year old 10" r-r (Teac) and turntable (Technics)
and my 3 month old cassette (Sharp).  I think the music sounds just fine.
I draw upon YEARS of having worked in radio stations (from NJ to CA and ME)
while traveling 'round the world with the Navy.

How 'bout this one:  wow and flutter is usually measured in percentage, with
most systems coming in at between .08 and .2 percent.  If a normal test tone
is 1000hz, then .08 percent of that is .8 hz.  I DEFY ANY LISTENER to be able
to tell me a change in .8 hz at a 1000hz test tone!!!

And there are also several EXCELLENT noise/tick reduction systems on the
market which, when used CORRECTLY, remove a lot of the surface noice present
on records which are NOT made with virgin vinyl.  I have a Heathkit (believe
it or not) noise reduction system which I bought about 3 years ago.  It works
just fine for removing hiss.  And, the SAE pop-click filter works NEAT!!!
