Humanity's 10 greatest inventions: the other 9?

CDs played through a really good non oversampling DAC turn out to be way better than you’d imagine.

Nah, its much better to have a reference turntable and £30k of cables, amplification and speakers. Because then you can really hear the stylus wear and record surface noise after 25 plays

An irony is, the better turntable systems get the more they loose that warm euphonic sound and the more they sound like CD
Vice versa too - top quality CD players become more fluid, solid, dynamic and 3 dimensional..

I've avoided saying cheese everytime I've posted, but it's always been the first thing I can think of.

To be clear, I listed Cheese Moments. The greatest snack of all time.

But if we hadn't invented cheese, there would be no cheese moments.
