Thanks for all your input. In truth I have not compared similar recordings in both 33 and 45. I guess I was expecting something similar with the difference from LP to Cd which was a BIG difference. The switch to LP was real eye opener. The fuss over amps and speakers seems to be absurd with a system with only CD playback when a TT is such a huge upgrade.
33 vs 45 speed quality
I just got into analog recently. My TT is a rega P9 which blows away my cd player for music quality. But...in truth I cannot tell any difference between 33 and 45 speed recordings. Is it just my ears or is my setup to Lowfi? I am using a Mac 6300 integrated amp and audiophysic spark speakers.
