Just watching an old detective film "Out Of The Past" (also known as "Build My Gallows High"), and when threatened, Robert Mitchum says: "I wouldn't. I'm tired of getting pushed around." Trainspotters will find it at 1hr 8mins in. A few minutes later he also says "So d'you wanna talk business or d'you wanna play house?"

80's years of brilliant sounds and music :) love this ...

Cool, I really found this one! ^^ I almost thought it sunk into oblivion

The two dudes who left The Beat and then left The Fine Young Cannibal's. I remember getting a Pasty outside of Weymouth in 88 or 89 when it came out.
Man,i miss that Pasty.......

@lewis72; not sure what that "rubbish" comment meant. While I'm not a mathematician, and thus can't comment on proving Nyquist, I do know the basic principles of what the widely-accepted theory states.
With respect, the video you linked to "proving" you needed 10x sampling was fundamentally misguided and I wouldn't take everything a uni lecturer says as gospel, especially if it's outwith their field of expertise.
There might be more to say, but I'm bored of squeezing it into 500 characters.:)
-
That was a bit of a rubbish argument, wasn't it?
We DID do this at univeristy but that was 19 years ago AND our lecturer did go on about sampling at 10x frequency. I also remember this Nyquist name too.
I have a Linn Sondek that, when the needle wasn't worn, sounded amazing; it's in a box in the garage now. However, my £300 '88 Yamaha CD player sounded bloody good too. That too is in the garage... in a box. Shite though they sound, it's iPod all the time now!
-
@lewis72; yeah well, I'm not a mathematician, and I can't actually prove or disprove any of this either. :-)
Plus, there's also the issue of what some see as CD's limited 16-bit resolution (AFAIK NS says nothing about sample resolution- only the rate- and I've no idea what effect that might have on the final output).
So I'm quite happy to bet that some good vinyl setups can beat a CD player. Though the turntable in my £99 Midi Hifi probably wasn't one of them ;-)
-
OK, I appreciate that and I'm not going to be able to disprove mathematicians and no, you didn't claim that either. Still, I've often found the sound impressive in vinyl players even though some pressings are poor. U2 albums seem to sound crap regardless of format, as though they were recorded through a hanky.
-
@lewis72; yes, obviously there are other factors- I wouldn't claim otherwise!
But we'd been specifically discussing your original assertion regarding theoretical sampling rates.
As I already stated, "real world" filters can never match the "perfect" ones NS discusses, and on top of this, some D/A conversion units are better than others, as are I assume signal amplifiers, speakers, etc. etc.
So I *never* claimed NS stated that a cheapass Matsui CD radio would sound fantastic(!) :-)

pay attention for other records - it means release versions

Excellent audio...I wonder if it really was recorded from a turntable. Doubtful, but still sounds better than most "official" videos from record companies on youtube....Anyway this remains a classic house/jazz track from the 80's..

Of course it was wax, look at my channel. Records sound better!
