I'm not an audiophile but I am on that road, I have learned that the basics do make a difference.
NM, VG+ records only (not always as described through internet)
First pressings, etc. for best sound quality.
Proper set up and maintenance of turntable. I check over the turntable every month or so and recently found that the cartridge was off a little. Previous install of cartridge was off, so I adjusted and noticed a difference.
A good record cleaning system.
