 LPCM = Linear Pulse Code Modulation 

This has to do with how uncompressed audio signals are sampled.

A run of the mill genius would know what LPCM is.

Conversely a real Einstein would not mumble WTF.

Matter of fact the real genius is concerned with concepts, and not the arbitrary combinations of letters some nerd thought up to sound smarter than he is. 

Now that we have our word salad definitions we can run the OP through our symbolic analyzer. The first step in symbolic logic is to eliminate all the flowery phrases. So we cross out "It's important to acknowledge that the" because this is superfluous wordage. It exists only to confuse and distract those easily confused and distracted. Likewise, "thousands insist", "often", etc. Rhetorical flourishes, nothing more.  

The first sentence ends with the double-negative, "aren't wrong." That means right. Aren't wrong means right. Got it?

So do all this and now the first sentence reduces to, "Original analog era vinyl sounds better than CD."

Well, duh!

But seriously, this is what we call the proposition. The writer in this case is attempting to disprove the proposition. Let us now examine his argument. That is, how he will make his case for this fabulous claim! 

It’s only their hasty conclusion that this was due to an inherent fault of LPCM that’s mistaken."

Wait- what? That's it? For a minute there I thought LPCM was some magic phrase. But now thanks to mastering92 we know LPCM is just another word for CD! Not the tangible silvery hold in your hand CD, but the deeper process behind the item. LPCM is CD. 

Basically the OP is saying records sound better than CD, but not because it's CD. Talk about falling flat on your face!

And that my friends is the difference between a genuine genius and your garden variety loser wanna-bee word salad genius poser.

I like and use both formats! Which sounds better? This has been a hotly debated topic since the arrival of consumer digital (the CD) in 1982. But the buying public has voted! The CD player became the most popular home entertainment device next to the television! Followed and surpassed years later by the DVD player!

I guess the premise is beyond "the real genius"
He is closed to debate because he made up his closed mind decades ago.I will say that LPCM is a recording process, inferior to some but fine when done right (not often do to crappy ADC, as the link states.) CD is a delivery format. The genius drops the ball on "is."
Yada yada.
Word salad is overused tripe too unless directed inwardly.
Juvenile denunciation does not abide.
