The grain in 80s movies comes from firms such as Kodak producing cheaper film stocks as a consequence of the prices of oil exploding. Directors of photography and studios eventually complained, and got the companies to return to their previous standards.
James Cameron has never been pleased with how Aliens looked, as it used a new, unproved high-sensibility film stock which was quickly discontinued, so when it was time for the HD version, he used extensive filtering to removes much grain as possible.
So, yeah, there's no such thing as the "Cameron grain". It's on almost every 80s production.

Still can't figure out why a manufacturer of overpriced audiophool equipment would give free gear to this unemployed EQ consultant moocher.

An IRS audit of the Hoffmans finances would likely be extremely revealing.

Fuck, these aren't even First World Problems, they're Ultra-White, Ultra-Privileged, Ultra-Rich First World Problems. Oh, to send the IRS a nice long link and screenshot filled email regarding Hoofy and Qarla's finances...I really should.

Nothing screams audiophool like unnecessarily disabling an important feature and adding random vacuum tubes. You can’t make this shit up.
