Can "bad" recordings be rescued?

Compromises finely played off against each other are still compromises. Perhaps I should point you to a definition of compromise? And the Lotus would kick the M3s butt too. A big BMW, M3 or otherwise, would catch it on a long straightaway, but that's like declaring the reproduction superiority of the system that is the loudest.

Oh and my apologies for the other post. Perhaps you should point me to a defintion of "harmonic."

That's fine, Tim, we all get excited at times, me especially!

It's an obvious one, but the Wikipedia article on "Harmonic" is an excellent starting piece, told me much more than I already knew. And the info on partials is fascinating, tells you why a system with any remanent distortion will have trouble replaying instruments producing these cleanly.
