Since this Post is directly after I tell you that The Vinyl SOUNDS differant, I guess you don't believe ME. What is sad is that you have not heard the dif on average playback systems. Only when your rig and speakers are up to the task is the difference very apparent. I refer to my 1st post. CD's are a loss of bits medium. If one note is thought to drown out another, that note is dropped out completely. In analogue they are all layered. To not hear the Inferior Productions in 80's CDs as less Imaging, Less Spaciousness must be because of that poor hearing. Why do you think Companies spent Millions ON DVD-AUDIO and SACD. Because regular CDs are inferior to The Rich sound that LPs have . Even Now The Companies are using a lossless medium in DVD-HD, another upgrade to the CD........So Jim, If your Travels take you to the Conn. Area, I would be happy to Play you the Difference after a great Supper with Me and the wife....Especially with one of those Pristine Japanese Pressings over my 20 Year old DENON table.
