A few months back I found all of my old vinyl records and started transferring them to the computer via a turntable. I made an interesting discovery.
Most of them sounded great after a bit of cleaning up both physically and digitally.
In fact I'd go as far as to say for my experience that old fashioned records sound better then CDs.....
I love my CD collection.. BUT.......
Most of the time CDs have a harsh sound to them.. Sure the music is clear but it has a harsh edge to it.. All my old records most of which were duplicated on CD when CD came out sound better then their CD counterparts to me. They have a softer edge to the sound that falls off instead of just dropping off like the digital version if that makes sense to anyone.
And CDs on the whole still cost as much as when they first came out which to me is a rip off... I wish vinyl had never died.
