perhaps. for the record and I don't know true it is but.... I heard VINYL only sounds better if yer playing it on $30,000 turntable or system, i seem to forget which one way it is since i read this eons ago. personally I prefer cds, much more convenient. but i still buy loads of vinyl (12's only usually) since that's the only way some of the best stuff comes out, i.e gescom ep 1. I'm lazy and can't be bothered with vinyl for the most part, so i play it once and record it.
