Eli ... is this the Haydn LP that you're calling your "CD killer"? (Link below.) If so, I'd like to locate a copy. (It shouldn't be difficult as there are four on eBay at the moment.)
I also wanted to "+1" the following, which you stated in an earlier post:
[R]ecording quality frequently is more important than any particular technology. A well done CD beats a crappy LP and L_RD knows plenty of crappy LPs were pressed.
Although I might change "frequently" to "always"? This is why (IMO) we need both great analog and great digital sources in 2017, and why we shouldn't have a predisposition toward either.
Living in a neighborhood that's considered the hipster capital of the world, I have a girlfriend, numerous friends, and lots of acquaintances who are absolutely convinced of vinyl's superiority. I've demonstrated for many the fact that this is hardly an across-the-board fact. The truth is, given the freedom to select the recording, I can easily prove that Tidal streamed from an iPhone to my DragonFly is far superior to my analog rig.
