NO!! You get me all wrong! I still find vinyl hugely superiour to CD, I'm just saying that the process can improve the sounds of CD. For me, it makes the cd listenerable to, whereas before it was just really weak and fustrating.
The tests were done on a my Dad's Linn system. The Linn LP12 still sounds much better than the CD (no, it's not a CD12), it's just that he listens to Classical music and struggles to get new classical records. Luckly with Dance music, DJ cluture also keeps audiophiles like myself happy by keeping vinyl going strong. Now if only they didn't put their hands of the playing surfaces of the records in the shops...... ;-) Cheers, Paul. > This may be true, BUT we're still dealing with a 44.1KHz, 16 bit CD, it can > only sound so good. 96KHz/24bit sounds significantly better, and is the > closest we have to analog sound, but there is still no comparison to vinyl > on a VPI Aries (or better) turntable.
