CD's or Vinyl?

I do not like being boxed in a corner. Pull the trigger.

Unfortunately it has always been the most expensive music medium, but you can’t knock it. For home use it can be as good as it gets.

For me, this rings true as most of the music l collect on vinyl and CD comes from original film soundtracks from 15 or 7 1/2 ips studio masters.

There is just something there, hard to explain with archival master tapes that have been carefully stored. Even commercial 1/4” tapes from the 60s and 70s on 7 1/2 ips 4 track, and pre Dolby can surprise.

It’s always a good sound idea, if affordable, to not limit yourself to just one format.

CD's are capable of much greater dynamic range than Vinyl, although sadly digital recordings often do not take advantage of that capability.  Vote CD's
