Learned something about vinyl vs. digital recently

I have been running some different speakers for a change recently - something that's actually conventional, which for me is unusual. They are are the AZ Adagios and they are a pretty impressive speaker.

Here is what I learned: while I still prefer vinyl, digital sounds better on these speakers than on my hi-eff, single-driver speakers. Why? I suspect it is because of the rising response that is an almost guaranteed side-effect of the wideband driver. This results, to some degree, in a slightly thinner sound.

Vinyl, of course, has more body and density (some say this is simply a matter of vinyl's inherent higher harmonic distortion but I don't know about that). This makes it sound *much* better, IME, on thinner-sounding speakers, than digital.

Anyway, whilst I find digital more tolerable generally thru these flat speakers, vinyl's still even better.

Cheers.
