seems like if, youtube audio was even better

bro it's 2024 records are cut with the same files that the streaming services use. It all sounds the same it's not an all analog process anymore.. . Explanation (when you make analog media from digital media and not analog media from analog media, there is no difference between analog and digital when it's all made from the same digital master media)

bro people that listen to Eminem don’t care about music quality. If they did, they wouldn’t be listening to Eminem.

This wasn't a fair comparison. The only way to tell the difference is to be in the room in front of the speakers. You can't play the music through your speakers and pick the sound up with your camera mic and play it on youtube and expect anyone to tell the difference. It's too hard to tell the difference, and I could not tell the difference. No disrespect. Sometimes, digital sounds better, and sometimes, analog sounds better. And sometimes it boils down to what the listener prefers. I prefer records, but not the crackle or surface noise associated with them. I wish cd's were analog and not digital. Then we'd get pure noiseless analog. But I can only dream.

Vinyl seem to be more rich

I love vinyl but you kinda gave the vinyl a greater advantage by putting it up against Spotify.

Different. Not necessarily better.

Barely a difference? I mean, we are just hearing it through your phone microphone.

you lost me at "here is the music in youtube..." shows that you are not qualified to produce this video

KZfaq is not a comparison lmao

Ah yes compare a youtube stream where it's compressed compared to a bespoke vinyl record. Fair comparison

Not a true comparison for way too many reasons.

I have both a high end turntable and a high end digital streaming system. I can tell within the first few seconds, the difference

lol dude paint his nails 😂😂😂

You have to move your speakers apart for better stereo imaging and optimal enjoyment. Get some stands or something

vinyl sounds higher pitched

The vinyl is being played at a noticeably louder volume. KZfaq videos also have pretty high compression, I can noticeably tell the difference between a song on KZfaq and even Spotify. Those two things combined result in the vinyl sounding better. To properly test this, you’d need to match the volume for both inputs, and ideally use a CD to get a true analog vs vinyl comparison.

Definitely a difference even through the phone. Clarity and definition evident on vinyl.

If anything, you only proved that it depends on the input source on which sounds better. All audio through KZfaq will be digital, there is no way possible to reproduce an analog sound with KZfaq, as all things on the internet are digital. All of us listing to this are listing to a digital version of it, where only the input source changed. This means that if the exact same input source was used to record the record, a CD, or an MP3 then all 3 would be nearly indistinguishable.

Really! Comparing digital and analog transferred to low resolution digital.

Why did you play it through KZfaq though

The vinyl is cut from the digital file

Huge difference in clarity. The digital version is so muddy.

Hands Down with the proper sound system the vinyl WILL always prevail... Vinyl is true sound on a true system. You have not heard the vinyls true sound?

To hear him say My Record Player. Sounds like a fruit cake... Um......Turntable!!!!

Your spending hundreds of dollars for the music BUT it's the system that's hurting for the upgrade... Rookie!!!!!

Look... There's NO justice with your system.... The sounds system sucks? Itty bitty speakers.....What an embarrassment. You are definitely NOT getting the full sound of the vinyl. You obviously don't know much about music.. That's free info at no charge. ENOUGH SAID!!!

Small difference

you tested it on youtube though which is very low quality audio should test with high bit rate file or CD but also the record probably sounded worse because- i didnt see a receiver which means ur probably using powered speakers which dont have the best amp for vinyl records- so in the end- i couldnt hear the difference on my phone and even if it was in person id still find something to complain about i guess

The room does not sound well, so both does not sound good.

Eminems the goat 🐐

Most modern pressings of albums sound like 💩 you wanna compare vinyl to digital used first pressings from the 70s/80s.

sky high difference....cant compare horse with donkey

You should have make comparison against Compact Disc and test them on a true HiFi/Stereo system.

You will never be a real woman

you do know that this is the worst comparison ever since its recorded through your phone mic, and most vinyl records have been digital since the early 80s.

I want to know how nobody seems to have pop and crackles but every vinyl I buy new or used has a lot of surface noise.

Is the cartridge Moving Magnet (MM) or Moving Coil (MC) or ceramic (CER)?

I think sound quality isn't key to some people. they like the physical and tangible factor of vinyl

can't wait for this whole vinyl madness to stop

You have a cheap turntable no shit it won’t sound any special

I've never got a vinyl record stuck in a record player.😅

Through KZfaq? It has terrible audio. What a strange comparison.

Analog playback even on a digital recording is going to be different and in my opinion better. Because a stylus and cartridge is my like a natural instrument with internal vibrations frequency all lend to a more natural sound. Think of a guitar string vibrating in 3 dimensions instead of 2.

So many factors here. My vinyl rig would shit on any digital source

Ish get a better record player and someone that can do a pro calibration of the cartridge Add a separate phono stage and it will blow away the Digital Comparing apples to lemons is not a good comparison kid!

Well it sounds sharper but that can be settings

The Vinyl sounds real and loud,

I collect high speed tape and LPs. Yes LP is crisper and clearer.. they admit Cds took a hit on the sound clarity to get fast sales and get it out faster..

I have a Celine Dion vinyl that I bought 10 years ago haha and I barely played it because i didnt own a record player, I can probably count the times played with my fingers yet still it has a lot of stuttering and has very pronounced jumps, I dont get it, not the best for preservation 😢
