I object judge sahab!

I know I'm a too young and a noob compared to you w.r.t. the world of vinyl..but I'll tell you what my ears have experienced so far. I think that metal sounds MUCH better on vinyl as compared to CD. Maybe I have a cheap CD player i don't know (Sony Play Station 2. But I have a good friend who has a Cambridge Audio CD player. Supposed to be pretty high end)..Plus it depends on which CD/vinyl pressings you're comparing..but what i like better about the sound from a vinyl is the tone of the bass guitar and drums. They just don't sound like that on CDs. Its like eating hot, spicy chicken kabab with Limca :thumbsup:
The lower frequency spectrum sounds so much better that i just cannot think of listening to an album on CD if i already have it on vinyl. For e.g. Slayer's Reign in Blood. I have the original US Def Jam pressing on vinyl and Japanese (OBI strip) remastered CD version. The double bass drums sound so juicy and heavy on vinyl. The bass guitar sounds extra 'noodly'. Whereas on CD, the double bass seems to sound a little distorted..(remember; drums used in rock music are acoustic drums. They are supposed to have no distortion on them at all), the volume of bass guitar sounds lesser. The lead guitars and vocals seem to be pretty much the same on CD and vinyl, but like i said : the quality of the lower frequencies on vinyl just slays the CD version! I just feel like kissing my turntable when i hear the rhythm section so brilliantly on it!
I have a Dream Theater album which was reissued on vinyl (for the first time) early this year. It was only released on CD before. Now this was another example where the vinyl version just whirlwind-ed the CD version (this was a Music on Vinyl pressing..MOV generally put out really high quality pressings of classic albums)
Anyway that's my opinion
Classic albums there! I especially love that VH album. I'd say that's my fav by them (Close call between that and their debut).
