It's certainly weird, I admit, but there's something about lower fidelity like tape, vinyl, the Vinyl Jazz channel, M3 and M50 that is very appealing at times. Lower fidelity on the M3 and M50 doesn't mean reduced soundstage and imaging. Rather the imaging is more blurry and the dynamics are reduced. Sort of like the difference between a high rez ink drawing and charcoal. Both are cool in their own way. smile
