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!!!
