… unfortunately this article has some, from my point of view, “issuers”. The author advocates needs to build but better audio in order to make audio better. I disagree with this approach. I feel that better audio comes from evolvement of listening consciousness and a better audio will just organically flow out from the consciousness’ progress. Also, the author advocated a vertical partition of musical idea. I very much degree with it and in my view the musical ideas has strictly horizontal nature. I wonder what would be the outcome of Mr. Boyk if he would play with my concept of listening re-composition of played back material.

Anyhow, with some minor exceptions it is an excellent article. Still this article is hardly presents an emblematic musicians point of view on audio as Mr. Boyk is rather audio–anomaly among typical musicians.
