Vinyl vs. CD


Hey out there,I've been listening to a high quality CD playback system for the past couple years and have recently become interested in going to turntable rig.(I still have an LP collection).I have a quality tube pre with phono and decided to buy an inexpensive turntable to spin some of my old favorites (Rega 2 with grado silver) I had no pre-conceived notion of what would sound better,I just remember the enjoyment I got from playing Hendrix, Rolling Stones ect.on an a good ole' record player.After listening to the Rega for a few days I switched back to CD's (Meridian 500 trans 566/24 dac)and found that the remastered CD issues of the same LP's sounded alot better.Must I drop several K's to experience "Vinyl Dreams" ?

No more digital/analog nightmare?Sony have THE answer? Look at analog and digital recording,resonably good whatever,but then you have too reproduce the studio work in your home,its here it ALL begins. Gramofhone,making mekano movement to elect.impuls, dont work.Nobody who have been in a studio and listened to reel_music would say that a grammo can sound like that. At least 20% are missing.But we recon what we hear as our Analog alternative. Digital Are better!Not much are missing,and we learn! BUT you have to use digital filter on a digital recording, and analog on a analog recording and shape it likewise. Thats why SONY has placed 9 koefc.filters on there better CD.s since -96 so you can listen to take thr right one, at a spec.recording.But with all the standards in use while recording it is hard to make it funktion,Thats one of the reson to SuperAudio CD,to take controll over All What is happening in the studio,so that we only have to think about "Getting the right fase,The current in the diff countries in the world Even SONY can get controll over". So grammos are a relic fromlast centure.But analog recordings vill survive. Excuse my spelling, Greetings from Sweden
