Rega P25, would it sound better than my CDP?

"sound better" is a tough call.
Remember it will sound different, and have some noise, much higher maintenance.
I went 'back' to LP again... and can say if you have a good/cheap plentiful supply of used LPs, then it is worth going to LP.
If you have to buy them via the internet...($$$$$$$$$$$)
I would not do it.
I aquired about 10,000 good LPs in about two years just in my local area (and dabbled on eBay for about a hundred LPs.. but not any more.)
As for sound.... I enjoy Lp sound with my Dual 7000 and Shure V15xMR with a Audio Research PH-2, and also listen to Cds.

Better? Not really. With the Rega music will sound sluggish and percussion instruments will not sound crisp and fast. Give it a test: buy a Fania All Stars virgin vinyl limited edition salsa LP (from eBay) and then get the same in CD format. Compare...

Never in my life have I heard any Rega deck described as such. Years ago I had a P25 and that is not the way I heard it at all.

Repeat after me: "My name is Elizabeth and I am a Vinyl-holic."

Mind telling us where your "local area" is so we can shop there too? I guess L.A.

That is a lot of vinyl. If each record is 35 minutes long and you listened 4 hours a day it would take you 4 years to listen to every record.

To the original question; a moderately expensive vinyl rig based on the P25 with a comparable cartridge and phono stage will reveal things that even the most expensive CD player can't. However, as pointed out, whether you consider that to be superior is up to you. My vote would be yes. In my experience vinyl is the superior medium if you are willing to spend the time with the requisite maintenance.

Bear in mind that you will need to consider:

1. purchasing a cleaning machine if you intend to purchase used vinyl and it is still good to have with new records,
2. the ongoing debate over which fluid and machine and technique is the best
3. new vinyl is expensive and used vinyl will result in a number of rejects due to imperfections not visible to the eye,
4. for some records there have been a large number of pressings and some sound significantly better than others,
5. you lose the convenience of a remote to change/skip tracks
6. you have to flip the record halfway through the album,
7. you can become obsessive and continuously fret over whether you have optimized all settings such as VTA, tracking force, azimuth, etc.
8. records are much more easily damaged than Cd’s, there is no error correction for records

Other than that it is the perfect medium.

I'm using older Exposure gear for pre and Power. The phonostage will likely be the Trichord Dino. I am using PMC LB1 Speakers.

Will this vinyl set-up be sufficient enough to make most vinyl lovers prefer the sound to CD (with my current CDP).

I know there are a lot of people here who prefer the sound of vinyl.

What differences can I axpect to hear between the two formats. I assume CD will still be clearer and maybe a little more detailed. Vinyl maybe a little more organic where a guitar sounds more like a guitar, etc. Am I wrong, wha else?

Thanks BTW for all your time,
