The Gadget Show did a comparison to get the absolute best from a CD and from vinyl what you would need to spend on your setup, remember this is for the best sound possible from a CD or vinyl, quite a big differance, for vinyl you would need to spend £35,000, that would be the amp, turntable, speakers (floorstanders), cables but to get the best from a CD you only need to spend £6,000, that is the amp, CD player, speskers, stands and cables, £29,000 more to get the best possible sound from vinyl.
