LP does not mean good sound, it is only as good as they recorded it. Over 30 years I see about the same core recordings released over and over and they are not all released because they sound good, they are released because they feel they will get enough sales to make it worth their expense. 24 bit. SACD or 32 bit does not mean a good sounding recording and with them now eq'ing a lot of the releases in both digital and vinyl you are not hearing the way they were laid down in the studio, different yes better well that a individual thing. I heard the Mo-Fi release of Nat King Cole "After Midnight Sessions, and I was shocked how much of the sound had been lost of that 50's era. Could not listen to even on track the sound was so far off from how they intended it to sound. But then others may like it so to each his own.
