I had the chance a couple of years ago to work with the Akai GX-747 open reel tape deck. With a quality recording is was very difficult to tell any difference between it and CD.
Paying close attention once could tell that the CD had a little better lows but harsher highs. All-in-all, very comparable results and equitable trade-offs, aurally. Obviously reels are less convenient than CDs. Now when the Superaudio CDs (audio on a dvd [iirc] media, and at a higher sampling rate) become endemic then the difference will bee pretty much impossible to detect. Except, of course, for that handful of techno-geeks who can hear anything.
