RE: Greq W. takes on Cliff and says viewing in s cheap viewer is like
listening to music on a cheap radio! And suggests that a lot more is
hears on a $3000 stereo?

This example brought to mind something I once read. Toscanni's son (who
was a hifi nut as the bobby grew in the '50s (before THAT stereo) found
the Maestro listening to a cheap FM table radio with small speaker and
said "Father, how can you stand listening to that! After conducting live
orchestras? I can hardly on my fine system equal the live experience?"
Toscanni senior said, "Easy, I heard the music in my heard and it
replaces the missing parts!" Maybe cliff see this way in his head???

(As a long suffering hifi nut too, I should note that Edward Tatnall
Canby, columnist for years in Audio, was a Realist user and mentioned
stereo photography now and then in his column on stereo sound and
events.)
