I've heard similar claims, among others, that bouncing to a high quality
VHS tape (using a quality VCR, obviously) can do wonders. My guess is it
has something to do with gentle, non-linear, natural compression
occuring at that stage, but other, more knowledgeable people probably
could elucidate this better than I could.
