I don't want to be dragged into this topic again....but...that statement is a little out of context...what I said in other posts was in reference to the effects of
modern mastering....yes in the perfect world digital(like CDs)"should" have more DR than vinyl....
.and they did..."back in the day".......BUT......and this is the point I was trying to make....modern mastering has taken that advantage away...just look at the single digits of some of these "remasters" of the same title...
Here is an example....in 1986 the
CD and the
Vinyl had good numbers(the same overall number) but years later the effects of "modern" mastering changed all that..
..in 2018 the vinyl is about the same...but the most recent version of this title
in 2015 on CD demonstrates my point
So hopefully this ends my involvement on this topic..Brian was correct in his assertion that digital has more DR...BUT...with this modern type of mastering
the end product doesn't reflect that advantage...and even vinyl with it's limited DR is exceeding it in most cases now...and it's not just physical discs that are being affected...downloads are affected as well...here is the "deluxe" edition
download and the
vinyl edition
