Vinyl Vs. CD

I know that this has been debated for SO long, but i want to get only the pure technical facts, between the sound quality of CD and vinyl. I want to see sound tests and waveforms and whatnot.

I used the search function, but you cant use vs. and cd =D

thanks

Of course, vinyls are teh l33t. They are massive, you can't play them on walkmen, PCs or, hell, practically anywhere but a top-notch stereo or a club. They have many other other advantages, such as rubbish sound quality and the fact they can hold about 3 seconds of music. Oh, and let's not forget they scratch really easily, and cost a fortune.

In conclusion, vinyls rule. Yes.

he was asking about the sound quality guys, not which one you think are better

CDs have superior sound quality by far. Proven fact.
I actually did a science experiment on it for school once

vinyls are true analog which = no frequency cut off range where as cds are limited what they can play. Analog sounds warmer and more real due to the inperfections in it where as a cd generaly sounds flat in comparison... But more modern cd players such as the cdj1000s reproduce the vinyl in someway(im not 100% sure what they do). I love vinyl and i love the sound but in a few years it will be gone except for the few people who wish to collect it.

listen, turntablism is a street art like graffiti.
although some dj's, big and small, might choose to
mix with digital tools, mixing with vinyl will never
die. it's an underground art, culture if you will,
it is not a fad.

vinyl does have better sound quality then a cd. I don't know what your grade 4 science fair project told you but it's wrong.

A new record
A tech 1200
An orfton needle

= the best possible sound out there. No cd player is going to rival it.

And for the fool who went on about vinyl scratching easy. Wow sure think man, I've NEVER had a cd that scratched.
