    It was Sony's name for a mineral loaded plastic material. They tried create to some mystery around it by giving it a fancy name. All it really is, is polyester mixed with a bit of GCC (Ground Calcium Carbonate) - chalk, limestone and granite have a high content of Ca CO3.

    A bit like what they make those coloured kitchen sinks from.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Same principal, different type of plastic I think, but yes.
