Default The truth about accuracy of CD v. LP

"Codifus" wrote in message
...

It's very easy to make a CD copy of vinyl, so why not start there?
Take a record. Play it on your system while recording it to your computer.
Burn a CD. Lisen to both. Which do you prefer and why?


Consider the possible results:

(a) Can't tell the difference: This is actually the result I expect, and it
means that CD quality is good enough for your ears; CD recording delivers
what went into it with no perceptible loss of quality; now whether you
*like* what went into it is a separate question.

(b) Prefer the vinyl: This means CD recording, under these circumstances
and as measured by your ears, is imperfect, i.e., involves perceptible loss.

(c) Prefer the CD: This also means CD recording is imperfect but the
imperfections are something you like, perhaps because they compensate for
other imperfections already present.
