Vinyl lives in a whole different universe of error: harmonic distortion, noise, surface defects, etc. No quantization noise!

But here’s the thing: the noise vinyl introduces is •orders of magnitude• larger than the noise CD-quality digital audio introduces. Like 20-30dB more.

There is absolutely no sound an LP case produce that a CD can’t reproduce (much less higher-quality digital audio). There reverse is not true.

Yet LPs •do• often sound better! Why?
