i was comparing the qobuz version of Dirt by Alice in Chains with my vinyl pressing (both 2022 remasters) and i noticed that the digital version is a little too bright and it felt more compressed (drums in vinyl are more punchy). I am curious about why, especially about why the qobuz version sounds brighter.thanks

    There is zero evidence given here to support such a blanket statement. Fair to say some versions/mixes/masters may be better than others, including vinyl over digital? Certainly. Claiming vinyl ‘often sounds better’ based off of this n of 1? Nope.

      ‘better’ is probably wrong, but certainly vinyl is consistently more dynamic, as are CD releases from about before 1994.
