[net.audio] hound!rfg's comments on TSS - endorsement

I heartily endorse Bill Mitchell's comments on my comments about
T$S.  I think there is room for both messages within the larger
hall of "truth." Perhaps the art has advanced to the point where
we have to use language like " left center stage in the upper
midrange" (to invent a term that <might> have been used bt T$S.

My purpose was to indicate that there are limitations to T$S - don't
expect too much.  I did and I was grossly dissapointed by the two
issues I got back by return mail.

On the CD issue, if we waited until the art was "mature", T$S,
if it existed at all, would be writing about the latest from
Victor Talking Machines and commenting on the new radical
design of the conical horns.
What I think I see is a commercial decision to direct most of the
world to CD or other digital technology, while a push is made to
hang on with "Up-scale analog". Imagine, Stereo Review going
go-go while pushing Linn-Sondek turntables. Boggled mind my is.
