Why Does Vinyl Sound Better?

There is nothing like the sound of a vinyl record. You start up the record player, drop the needle on the disc, and experience the sound. CD’s and MP3 players can’t do the trick. The reason for this difference lies not just within the quality of the system used to play them, but the vinyl disc itself. Music can be recorded in analog or digitally. Where CD’s and DVD’s can capture audio digitally, records and most cassettes create analog recordings.
An analog recording on a vinyl record creates grooves in the disc that exactly match the soundwave to scale. When the music plays through an amplifier; you hear the exact same wave, as intended by the artist. Digital recordings aren’t as accurate. A CD with music files has to go through a conversion. When audio goes on to a disc, what is recorded is actually a number of close instances of noise, but not the exact wave. When played, a digital recording doesn’t have the full sound quality of the song, and ends up feeling artificial with a thin, metallic sound.
