Madman! Digital vs Vinyl


Anyone out there who has a great vinyl setup and a great digital setup, try this!

Bring up Elton John’s Tumbleweed Connection Deluxe Edition on Qubuz for digital which includes Madman Across the Water and play it.

 

Then pull out your vinyl of Madman Across the Water and play it.  
 

Please tell me which sounds better on your system and what you have for TT, cartridge and phono preamp.

 

 I won’t bias the results by telling you what I think.

 

 Thanks

For as many cd’s or streamed content you show me, I can show you just as many vinyl Lp’s that will sound better. It is in the pressing. Some sound like utter garbage, others will make your head spin played on a good set up. I have yet to hear any digital content that possesses that "tubey magic" that some, not all, Lp’s have.
