Default Re: Very low noise op amp recommendations?

RIAA issues aside, the cutting engineer often makes adjustments to the signal fed to the lathe to compensate for weaknesses in the format related to out-of-phase bass, very low bass, very high treble, dynamics etc, and the poorer response at the slower inner grooves. Whereas with a CD, such "mastering" in this sense is much less an issue if at all.

Often the vinyl sound we hear is a more processed sound designed to compensate for, and disguise the limitations of the format.
