At least they still have cool t-shirts.
Of course that’s what they are telling us they are. But my guess is the impressions on those shirts were created with a device that has a computer in the chain. Those evil bastards.Maybe so but I’m not interested unless they are certified organic cotton with a hand blocked print using rare earth mineral dyes.

so... you're basically OK with it, then?Huh? ……..WHAT?……those lying bastards…….I was led to believe the design was sketched out on a beer mat after a boozy listening session before passing out in a tangle of priceless Bob Dylan master tape.…..Jeez!, this just goes from bad to ”Oh my god you are literally sacrificing our childrens thoughts and dreams with your lies”.
When will this deception end?

Digital mastering doesn't make LP playback "non analog" or turn it into a FLAC.
Their website says they use a proprietary transfer method, from the original tapes - "First and foremost, we only utilize first generation original master recordings as source material for our releases." - which is true.
They don't say they cut vinyl directly from the master tapes, and never have. I think some of their customers have assumed that.
They also talk about their "One Step" vinyl process - but that explicitly refers to their lacquer and vinyl pressing process, not their mastering process.
I agree wholeheartedly. I love my vinyl, even for vintage non-technical recordings like my 1964 copy of Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln from Disneyland. I think the real benefit, which parallels high-resolution audio is that the mixes are different.
How do they do their mastering from DSD? Analog? Or in audio workstation in PCM?
The difficulty of digitization of vinyl results from the suppression of the crackles. Is there a simple software for this ?
If there's one thing that Amir has shown us for sure, it's that different isn't necessarily better. In fact, it's usually worse and more expensive.I don't, but can the typical laptop ADC record DSD or do you need better quality equipment? I mean it is a show of extra effort (hopefully translating to more care) on the part of the label, not that it is necessarily better quality wise.
I doubt that. I predict just the opposite.The controversy will do nothing but drive Mofi's already bloated prices higher.
Sorry, you can't use non-AB testing as proof in one instance and not in another.
Scientifically, (it's in the name of the site) if we take them not noticing as proof then we have to accept the times they do notice also as proof.
It is a theme I see over and over on here: as long as the results prove the sites stated argument then it doesn't matter how they were achieved. If they disprove it then the similar methods were flawed. I'm still waiting for the final "My wife came in from the kitchen and said 'Those two amps sound identical'" as proof that all amps sound the same though.
Mikey Fremer does not come off well in that article!
