| Oh right - of course. Hell of a piece of electronics, that thing. Still, to build a multichannel channel system around the (3-channel) 6B, with two more channels of amplification and a multichannel preamp(/processor) of corresponding quality, would have cost much, much more than the Linar.

| This would be the crux of our disagreement. I think it is far from "certain" that the live performance is "to be emulated" by a recording. In fact, I think it's simply false. A live venue offers all sorts of possibilities and all sorts of restrictions. The artists and engineers do what they can to make the most of it. A recording format (stereo or ... more | |
