Kinda like shock and awe, but isn't wow and flutter Bush's current
environmental policy? ^_^

I do like the softness and warmth that the analog tape adds to bass
tones and I miss that with Cd's. Although while there is no added
warmth or compression, some of the higher bit rates above 16 bits
provide a transparency and movement within the lower ranges that
heretofore were not commercially available before.
