CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl

Dear @fleschler : You are rigth and for the ignorance of some gentlemans is totally useless to post to them because no one of them that showed here their very low knowledge levels ( in the OP specific subject. )  are not willing not to learn but just " can't read " .
Seems to me that not even make any single effort to ask their self: why if I am wrong?. No way.

Btw, yesterday I listened some CDs vs the same LPs recordings ( others CDs  has no LP mates. ). One of them was the original soundtrack of the Flashdance movie. I had many many years that I did not lisented it and is a 1981 recording ( btw, great picture. ) and is just stunning and better way better than its LP mate but was not the only that outperformed its LP mates: several makes the same like the Foreigner 4 or The Wall or Gladiator or , or, or, Glory, Blade Runner, The Mission,Geisha, The Day After Tomorrow, or After Hours. Any one of us must listen The Thin Red Line: outstanding

Again, the issue in this thread and almost any thread is the true and real knowledge levels/first hand experiences and skills of each one of us.

In that Universe that I posted 70% of us are in the mediocrity of that Universe and even at lower levels ( 15% ) and at least me already made that long learning trip/tour to stay nearer to that broader/line between the top of the mediocrity to arrive at that very top end where I think only a few ( maybe less than that 15% of the Universe. ). I know at least two gentlemans at the top end and like me a few more that are in the line of the top end. Yes, I'm still learning from every one evrey where.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

I mean: at the border between average and top end.

Dear analog and digital lovers: For we can truly enjoy the MUSIC in any home audio system that room/audio system needs to be a FULL range audio room/ system.

That means not only that can goes not only down to 20hz and over 20khz but that in the case of the low bass range any passive speaker designs ( even if by design it shows full range specs: down to 20hz and over 30khz. ) must be mated in true stereo fashion with at least two self powered subwoofers where the main speakers will handled the frequencies from around 80hz and up and the subs 80hz and down .

Any home system with passive stereo speakers can't honor MUSIC ( with any source alternative. ) with out a dedicated designed amplifier that meets exactly the woofer(s) needs for what was designed and the MUSIC needs to puts IMD and THD at minimum. 
Subwoofers more that anything are for stereo systems and as a side " line " need it for home theather. Not the other way around.

@sleepwalker65, I can imagine you already know all those and you already have, don't you?

Fleschler, I challenge your cheapo player with my even cheaper player with New Dark Matter. Are you in?
