I know you have a couple of turntables but have you
actually bought a vinyl LP recently and compared it to
the same CD?

It's been a while since I did this, so I'm not sure how my LP collection and
my CD collection match up.

I have bought the CD of most of the LPs
I've bought recently as they are so cheap in comparison
and usable in the car etc.
Invariably the LP will have a much better production with
a much wider dynamic range.

Send me some CDs with rips of the LPs and the corresponding CD tracks.
Everytime other people do this for me, the dynamic range issues related to
the LPs are pretty clear.

Go out and buy a recently released LP, you might be
surprised.

I do have a pretty good LP playback system and I did buy some newly minted
LPs, 180 gram vinyl and all just a few years back. No joy!

And dynamic range issues are the only important consideration with recorded
music?

Too bad for you.
