Interesting thread.
Whether or not one sounds better than the other, IMO it's all subjective and a matter of personal preference. A CD is what it is and a vinyl LP record is what it is, a means to transport music into our diverse ears...and that's a good thing! 
Everyday, more and more I'm getting to be like 2x6spds ... and I quote,
' Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.'
Agreed.

See my post above yours.
I still have my 80's realistic turntable (with the light speed calibration feature), and use a vintage shure...v15 cartridge.
Also, sign me up for the "trust your ears club". (But not the "laugh at" club).

I think you are reading LTs post wrong, he is agreeing with you.

Well, you vinyl guys can turn green with envy now... I'm just adjusting the azimuth on my first 8-track player... all that new fangled random-access flat disc stuff can pee up a tree, I've got 4 stereo tracks of analog musical goodness... and there are others like me, too! Quake and cower at my... *whiirrr... *CLICK* whiirrrr...* musical might... (wonder how many will get THAT reference?) Bren R.

Bren, you're to be congratulated for developing this interest, but I beg of you to please keep your enthusiasm for 8-track under control! Don't become the subject for a collection of sad tales such as these poor souls afflicted with vinylitis , some of whom may have already crossed the threshold into becoming vinyl junkies .
-----------------------------------
Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
