[BC] Audio Performance

[Broadcast List USER]

Decades ago, I forced C&P Telephone, which became Bell Atlantic, and  
later trading as Verizon, to buy and AG-15 and AA-51.  They were tired  
of testing with mine.  They didn't have anything that would test at  
+18 dBm as required in the Tariff.

I have kind of recently bought my own.  I do use them frequently,  
though more frequently on stuff in my own audio system(s).

There is still analog stuff in the chain, and if you don't control  
noise everywhere, it won't sound great.  When everything goes quiet,  
you need black velvet, or it won't be great.  Add audio processing to  
that, and things only get worse.
