What in the world is going on.....


My system cost about 75000 dollars or so.  I got the rave review LP of the new Paul Simon album.....sounded pretty lousy.  I listened to the included M3P download using AirPlay through my Denon receiver and Senheisser wireless earphones, and it sounded wonderful......   What in the world is that all about....

Stringreen, can you be more specific as to the term lousy  as compared to the mp3...
Was it distorted, less dynamic, lacked clarity, poor imaging - get my drift?

My guess is it is a poor pressing and you should probably return it.

I've had pressings from supposedly good labels that had metal shavings in the grooves and other similar cutting related defects.

Vinyl should not sound worse than digital
