Post Subject: The irony of playback photographs and videos.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 2/3/2012

I find that to look at the specific components photographs is useful to see the new TT design or hew horns shape but generally photographs of the enter demo rooms are absolutely worthless. Over the year the audio people make a fashion to make video of the turntables spinning, the room playing. I always was in disgust to learn about those videos – how much more moronic could it get? However, in contrary to my detested the demo room video I have to admit that they much frequently then not give a more or less objective idea about sound of the room. Of cause all phones are different and there is no common recording techniques how people record the videos. Still, as many video clips I have seen as many times I was able to hear the very obvious problem of the given setup even over the horribly recorded videos.

For sure the absence of auditable problem on video clip is not an assurance that the problem exists. However, if you do hear the problem on video clip then what change is that the problem does not exist in real life?

Just for an illustration try to listed the crap like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALsEVY57CGg
