Reply to comment by Opus-the-Penguin in Wiil CD's make a comeback like Vinyl? by trukises

"obviously superior" is the subjective part. Nobody is agreeing that the Columbia Dylan CDs or Costello CDs from the 80's sound superior to a clean vinyl record. However the reissued later versions might be. (probably are) The exception may be in Classical which benefit from the reduction in the "warm tones" of vinyl. If you had the Bill the Cat flexi disc you would see that warm tone matters.

Of course. And what I'm saying is that almost all of us heard it that way. No one's saying there weren't examples of poor CD transfers.
