Not too long ago, I got out my Jimi Hendrix: "Electric Ladyland" L.P., and the current re-mastered cd version.

I play cds only these days, but every once in a while, just to see, I compare cd digital sound, to the analog vinyl.

Jimi's guitar on the L.P., (the 1983.....a merman, epic track) sounds like an electric violin....what tone!
However, on the cd, "the warm tone" just isn't there...(just one example).

This is a nice, simple test anyone (that has the discs) can try themselves.

Also, I forgot to say in my other post,.....vinyl did not "die".....but rather, was a victim of attempted "murder".
(by the recording industry....the guys putting out these cds, without ALL the 1's and 0's).




LT61, believe it or not people are repressing vinyl. I just purchased this set and it sounds fantastic.

Again, I ask you this question. What table, what cart and what phono pre did you use? If you played it on an old Technics, Denon or low-end MMF or Project table with a sub-par cart I would expect the sound quality to be less than desirable.
