My opinion, of course, but also based on many years of listening to all of them. I own a few thousand LPs, of all genres, a few thousand CDs, same and hundreds of SACDs, not to mention a number of open reel tapes.

Even on SACD, to my ear, and in general, the best sounding SACDs tended to be from analog originals (think the Pentatone reissues), followed by SACDs from DSD sources, and finally, in last place, the PCM sourced SACDs.

For about 5 years I listened to nothing but SACD, but for the helluva it one day threw on an LP (recorded in 1967!) onto the Rega P3 I owned at the time, and the music leapt out at me in way I had not heard in years. That was the beginning of my reconversion to LP.
