[QUOTE="placebo, post: 239237, member: 1324"] First comparison.Source 1982 Micro Seiki BL51 with RB301 arm rewired with Incognito wiring,Origenlive type counterweight.Sumiko Blue Point 2 cartridge playing into an Edwards Audio Phonostage(specially adapted for High output cartridge. Digital source Audiolab 8200 CD player. Album and CD On The Threshhold of a Dream- The Moody Blues.Purchased early 80's.Deram pressing made in GermanySame CD purchased somewhere 1n 2000.Deram pressing made in London. As far as impressions go vinyl bass was definitely superior to that on CD.Vocals much smother and articulate on vinyl in fact on Lovely to see You Haywards voice sounded at times to be gravely and slightly irritating on the CD.Overall Cd's highs were slightly better than the vinyl.Vinyl sound overall more smooth on the ears than the CD. I give it to Vinyl 55% to 45%. [/QUOTE]
