Unfortunately many of those LP guys also sell CD's to make a living
Phew, so the puinter CAN hear what the master is meant to sound like
then ...
One example known of the lp having A dynamic range and the cd not, ie.
totally different masterings, with the large dynamic range audio on the
small dynamic range hardware format. Based on actually analyzing a resonably
large selection of vinyl and cd's the general difference is that old vinyl
has large actually used dynamic range than new cd's. Which is to say that
the listener preference appears to be one of less manipulated - or better
manipulated - audio and not one of one of the formats actually sounding
better than the other. Most of the format characteristic differences vanish
when the lp is played back in a silent room anyway ....
