Mastering for CD vs. Vinyl

I just purchased BUILT TO SPILL's "YOU IN REVERSE" on CD and while the music is good the mastering of this CD makes it virtually un-listenable. This is by far the worst sounding record that I've purchased this year.
There is a double LP planned for this album but I don't want to waste another $17 just to get the same lousy production in a different format.
Note: the bad-sounding CD isn't a 'digital' problem, it is a case of absolute incompetence in the studio.

Exilibris, I just took a look at your system, and I'm convinced that it's just not up to the caliber of the recording. Only kidding...incredible system you have!

I'm with Synthfreek on this one. Built to Spill is such an amazing rock band that I'll take 'em any way I can get 'em.
