No, it doesn't.
No, it's not.
Vinyl has less detail than CD, not more.
CD's and Digital music, sounds better than Vinyl.
Some people PREFER the sound of Vinyl, using expressions like "It has a warmer sound", etc. but Vinyl does not, can not, sound better.
Vinyl introduces unwanted artifacts, such as scratches, into the music. The grooves in the record makes the stylus vibrate which becomes sound, but dust, imperfections wobble and poor tracking make the stylus vibrate too, which is translated into unintended sound, or an artifact.
Digital music has no moving parts. No dust, no scratches, no unintended warbles and no artifacts caused by any moving or friction-generating parts.
Try this experiment. Take a quiet song in digital, and crank the volume. If your amp is decent and has a wide dynamic range, you should hear little to no hiss during quiet parts of the song, or at points when there is no music at all. Now try the same thing with an Album. The noise and rumbling you hear is that of the friction scraping itself across the vinyl. The vibration of your speakers may also be picked up by the needle too, creating feedback.
In addition to this, the sound quality of an album gets worse, the closer the stylus gets to the center. If you ever wondered why "Double Albums" were made, it is for this reason. Yes they could pack alot of songs onto a single album but artists and producers would hate the fact that the sound quality of great songs near the center of the album would sound terrible. A double-album taking up more space helped reduce this.
I totally get why some people like Vinyl. What could be better than throwing on an old Pink Floyd Album on to a turntable, listening to Roger Waters and APPRECIATING the technology of the time while smoking a doob? There is a definite, romantic, memory-tickling thing to it, and personally I am thinking about picking up a turntable myself (Audio Technica probably) just to do it.
If you still want a turntable (like me), don't by any of the garbage ones you see at record stores, or Walmart, etc, or any with a USB port. They are made for suckers eating too much memberberries. Instead, go to a real electronics store (Like Addisons in Montreal), and look for a real turbtable. Don't go nuts on money. $150 - $350 or so will get you something really nice that you will like.
One like this
is under $500, and has fine tuning for things like speed, stylus pressure, etc, and has decent isolators to reduce vibration transfer from the floor to the stylus.
Happy spinning!
