It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Speaker's Corner has reissued the Kleiber 5th on 180g vinyl as part of a 3 LP commemorative of DG's 100th anniversary.

Au contraire, the Valois LPs of the Vegh are far from mediocre sound. Very natural string tone, lovely ambience.

I don't wish to start an argument, but to me, the difference between CD and LP is marked, even on less-than-audiophile quality LPs. And you seem to be reading from the proponents of digital literature. I've not read any objective article that makes such assertions. It's what the "bits-is-bits" crowd must say, since their preferred medium is only a reconstructed approximation (with error terms included) of the real thing.

But then Iam an anachronism who listens to outmoded recording technolgy over "flawed" transducers with amplifications devices that haven't been manufactured since V-J day. But it's strange - nothing i have ever heard on Cd has come close to persuading me the the performers are in the room with me. Yet on LP, that phenomenon recurs regularly.
