Couldn't car less. This is not some subtle differences that amount to counting angels dancing on the head of a pin. These are substantial differences in content. These are cases where the CD doesn't ever turn-on= my self-powered subwoofers, but the LP does - and at exactly the same volume= via my HP 400E audio VTVM. This indicates that the low frequency content of t= he CD is not sufficient to trigger the auto-on circuitry in the subs. Most likely it means that the CD has no resonant hump right around those frequencies, as records and LP playing equipment are well known to have. And the person mastering hasn't put that hump in there but recorded flat from the masters. I have noticed the same thing with my own vinyl records in comparison with a CD of the same record. You are right, it is not subtle and I have heard it myself and in my opinion it is there. But it's not an indication that the vinyl is "better" than the CD version. No one is disputing here, that I have seen, that vinyl sounds different then CD. These are, as far as I know, merely facts, and well known ones. It's when you claim that therefore the vinyl is objectively better that you leave, in my opinion, the land of reason, at least on that matter. |
