Well, if you had a decent turntable (of the calibre of your CDP) to enable you to do back-to-back comparisons against both everyday with a variety of recordings, like Martin and I can, you'd know the answer to that question!!

Yeah, the CD sounds closer to the source recording. The vinyl ADDS "NICE" COLOURATION which can charm the ears - FACT!!! If you don't believe me, fair do's. At least you have speakers with some bass welly Marco. So many domestic horrors have boom instead :(
Maybe you need to upgrade your DAC, Marco :lolsign:
No, it's far from being a "fact", Dave in all instances. If you continue insisting in spouting this kind of absolutist nonsense at every available opportunity, you and I are liable to fall out, bigtime...Quote:

Its the turntables that play them and some more than other's , some decks like the NAS range for example ! sound as neutral as one could want , the Techie is also neutral to me adding little bloom than i can tell.
on the other hand certain classic decks , make records sound yummy and warm ! though these days its been toned down and perhaps too much the other way , but that's my view anyway.
Agree :)Quote:
