Orpheus10, I will both agree and disagree with you about Dual example. In some ways Dual would still sound better with a well-recorded record than any cd system but overall probably not if that cd system is excellent. I have bad sounding records and good sounding cds, which ones sound better ? Overall, probably good sounding cds, and my analog is higher level than digital.
To return to the original subject, in my very limited experience digital recording or analog recording/digital mastering on LP sounds like best cd I could get. Original Japanese record beats any remastered or original Japanese cd. But again, my analog front end is pretty good, though CEC belt drive player is not bad at all.
