LP made from a digital master recording...

digital vs analog.  here we go again.

Digital "samples" signals at a certain clock rate and bit sampling rate.  this means for example if you were to digitally record a live concert, the the digital signal records the analog sound/signal at a certain sample rate.

you are inherently missing part of the signal. no matter the sample rate.  

However, the higher the sample rate, the closer you get to the accurate signal.

So, if you take the people playing analog music via microphones and digitally record it and that is the only recording. Then convert that digital recording to an analog recording for vinyl and listen via equally good vinyl system and the same digital recording via a digital playback system, will you hear a difference?  probably not.

But, take that same concert and record it analog and also record it digitally and play the analog recording on a very nice analog system and also play the digital recording on an equally nice digital playback system and I would bet a nice lunch you will hear a difference and the analog system will sound more spacious.

Take a concert or performance and record it analog.  Then also  remaster the recording digitally.  Play the original analog recording on a vinyl system and then play the digitally remastered recording on an analog system and you will hear a difference. Play the digitally remastered recording on a digital system vs the analog system/recording and you definitely will hear a difference.

But, as mentioned previously, it really depends on what you are listening to, how the music was recorded.

A very nice  digital system will sound wonderful.  It has come a long  way.  non fatiguing, great sound.  

But, when doing this type of comparison, one must compare apples to apples.

equally nice  digital and analog system:

analog recording vs digitally remastered analog recording: analog wins
digital recording to analog vs digital recording:  coin flip.

just my opinion.

Since no one seems willing to just come out and say it, this is all beating around the bush. It will never be the LP, or CD. Its the master tape. RTR uber alles.

This is not an analog vs digital discussion, or even a mastering discussion.

It is a question of whether a compressed, equalized, distorted recording of a digital file can ever sound better than the digital file itself. 

Of course the answer is yes. Because this is a subjective criteria.

I have ONE digital recording on LP.Late 80's 1812(Sir Gerog Solti) on London.Also have the CD.
Anyone have these 2 and compared? I would think if you had equal level playback systems, they should sound identical? I don't have the luxury.I'm all about obsessing on period LP's

All I remember is the cannon explosions either format, will compress your chest at appropriate volume.
