The sound you get depends so much on the equipment you have that
"warm" and "cold" are meaningless for an individual listener.
What matters is that some of the 50s and 60s LPs., before the
"improvements" began, contain unrivalled performances of the classics
by such as Ansermet, Furtwangler and superb chamber music quartets and
quintets superbly recorded eg. Budapest playing Beethoven quartetsa.
For all I know pop may sound better on CDs.

Yes, but....the necessary signal processing needed to enable them to
be cut with a $20K Neumann head without danger of tearing it up means
LESS realism. LESS dynamic range. LESS detail. Properly mastered, even
the old red book CD beats vinyl.
That said-the vinyl was mastered from fresh tapes which today may not
exist.
But since you have no technical knowledge and are apparently proud of
it, I wouldn't expect you to comprehend.
