Ceb222, you are correct, even the best sounding cd's lack the sound acheived by LP. It's inherent in the format. I would suggest playing more LP's. It seems to have worked for me. I have a tube cd player and a tube preamp, with a solid state amp. The tubes smooth the analytical sound to a degree, but I still do all of my serious listening on LP. I can even tell when a LP was digitally mastered (NOT a good thing). I like my LP's in full analog glory. CD will sound thin compared to an analog LP. A tube preamp can pretty up the sound a bit, but it's still an inferior medium.
You can put a pretty dress on Rosie O'Donnell, but she'll never look like Heidi Klum. IMHO.
