Issue with dynamic range database

I don't listen to vinyl, so I don't have first hand experience, so are the people who buy the vinyl because it's less compressed being fooled?

I do know that there is a lot of digital music that is overly compressed and limited, and that frequently digital remasters are.  What difference in DR numbers is significant?  2db, 3db or what?

TIA 

There is one issue about this recording - no information how he is ripped LP for comparison. So to say what he's doing is quite hard - no conditions of experiment. 
There is differences between CD and LP. Proper sound engineer keeps them in mind.

Good example of how you can be technically thorough and fair and yet totally miss the fact vinyl does in fact wind up being more dynamic- even when cut from a digital file. He does a great job trying to explain it away. But the most relevant part is where he says there's just way too many variables so I DON'T KNOW why vinyl does this. It just does.

Bukanona, he mastered the CD and vinyl. He knows what he is doing.


Miller carbon he states that the digital version sounds crisper and more dynamic even if the numbers do not. Based on some of the blowups it looks like he needed a rumble filter and probably better RIAA processing input to output. Without controlling for variables the vinyl version of the dynamic range has no meaning which I think was the point he was making.
