I don't own it on CD, so I can't really tell you if there's any difference whatsoever.

Sorry if it's been covered elsewhere, but is there a noticable improvement in sound quality when listening to an album on vinyl vs. cd? I assume there is because there couldn't be enough demand from turn-table enthusiasts alone to justify their production.

Personally, yes. A record that is in great condition and has been well taken care of, sounds immeasurably better than any CD version. The sounds are richer, fuller and much more substantial. These are just my ears, others have disagreed with me. Then again, my ears work pretty dang good so who knows? Cool

We have a thread here where the sound issue has been discussed if you are interested.
