A well performed, produced and mastered recording may sound different on an LP versus CD, but why does one have to be better than the other?? And who gets to make the final judgement?
The LP crowd should just relax a little bit. They seem to have some superiority thing going. Bad recordings won't miraculously sound great on an LP or a CD. And sure, a great recording, if "pressed" very well to LP or CD will surely sound different, but better?? Digital audio is the future and hopefully someday soon we will have the best possible digital recordings. The mainstrean doesn't care about sound quality now due to the iPod craze, but sooner or later the 'long tail' will prevail. Frankly, it is WAY more enjoyable to free your music with squeezebox than to mess around with LPs. I do see where the ritual of playing an LP is attractive (and the album art, etc), but for everyday listening it is not convenient. -- jh901 FLAC --> ReadyNAS/SqueezeCenter Living Room: SB Rcvr | Cary Audio Design CPA 1 | Krell KST-100 | Totem Model-1 Bedroom: SB Rcvr | HR Desktop Amp | AKG K 701 cans / Audioengine2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jh901's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18175 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51108 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
