>>It's pretty cool the guy was able to discern the differences.<<
Cool perhaps, but certainly not remotely surprising either, at least to anyone I know who's recorded or ripped high quality LP>16/44 transfers.
Even I think I'd have trouble discerning 100% of my own recordings in direct comparison, even though I went thru the recording phase (much listening) and am very well aware of the sonic differences between the copy played back on my CDP vs TT.
Let me provide another example: moons ago, an acquaintance would arrive at my house so he could spend a few hours listening to my system. He loved it, and this bud didn't even own a stereo, never mind being an audiophile. The thing was, he absolutely refused to entertain my digital alternatives. Once I turned to digital, he lost all interest. It was actually a good way to make him leave.
Anyway, a few years later, after I got my first CD recorder, he came over with some of his "audiophile" buds, and demanded the same analog experience. But after a few LPs, I pulled the old switcheroo using a LP-CDR; nobody noticed any "digital" intrusion.
