Ohhh, no... another eternal thread just about to begin... 8)
In a simple language...Vinyls are an analogue source of music which makes it
more closer to the original sound than digital ones like CDs (no conversion
of analogue sound stream into digital "ones and zeros" - hence no loss of
sound information). Vinyls have more natural, deep and atmospheric sound
than CDs though have much worse noise/signal ratio and have clicks and bops
in the surface... Digitalisation of sound did not manage to level with
natural sound of vinyl yet. That's why many audiophiles prefer vinyls over
cds....
