Listen to vinyl like music on vox.
Wav vs vinyl.
No audio data is lost when pressing a record.
Vinyl for the most part avoided the loudness war.
In some ways it s the audio equivalent of driving a ford pilot.
It sounds just as great as the producer or band intended.
That s why snare drums cymbal splashes and other loud instruments have so much more punch in vinyl recordings.
Vinyl can still push music to the limits of its dynamic range 55 70db but it often shies away from doing so in order to maintain sound quality.
The results may surprise you as they did us.
Digitalizing these records can result in the quality decline.
But for most of the parts the wav is uncompressed and carries a large data and sound details.
Because vinyl s restrictions do not permit the same abuse of audio levels as the cd mayo says that listeners might hear a wider dynamic range in an album mixed separately for vinyl over a compact.
This means that the waveforms from a vinyl recording can be much more accurate and that can be heard in the richness of the sound.
As usual i d have to agree completely with what mark said about vinyl vs.
We compare the sound quality of analog vinyl vs digital audio cd flac on a 100k stereo setup.
Using vinyl record is one of the most interesting practices for music lovers.
And to summarize going from a source recording vinyl cd to mp3 while preserving the best quality possible would be source 16 bit stereo 44 1k sampling wav 256kb mp3.

Sonically vinyl has both.
Having a cd handy with your vinyl will give you an added advantage.
There s another far superior reason why vinyl is better than lossy digital formats.
The vinyl lp is a format based on technology that hasn t evolved much over the last six decades.
There s very little compression so the loudest parts of those sounds often.
