Larf all yew like Elrond, yesterday - idly musing, in anticipation of Ian's
visit, I paired up the Brothers In Arms CD and LP and was flicking between
them (which I can do) when Swim got back from the town. As she walked in I
said 'better or worse' on a quick snatch of both - she picked the LP
instantly. I did it twice more and she picked the LP again both times - I
could hardly tell between them....

Now, in case you *were* being serious (highly unlikely from a 'cassette' as
mentioned above) a good CDR of an LP is usually better than the equivalent
CD, in my book - probably due to mastering differences. (I have a small
number of albums MP3'd from both the CD and LP and can post snatches to
compare if anyone, who can make the allowance for MP3, wants to hear
them...??)

But can your better half tell the difference between an LP and a CDR
copy of the LP? That's the real test of whether a CDR preserves the
vinyl sound.
