Chris, I just would like to say that you've come up
with the most (perhaps only) meaningful, realistic,
practical comparison method between LP and CD that
I've ever heard of.


I beg to differ. I don't think this really demonstrates
a comparrison between the two media at all - if the CD
copy sounds just like the vinyl it just means that the
CD is a very good storage media where you get out
(almost) exactly what you put in.

That was, I think, the point !

Which begs the questions raised by people who claim that the CD format
somehow inherently makes music unacceptable for the purpose of them
listening for their enjoyment.
