I pose the question because a slight accident at my local dealer ended in a new Ortofon MC cartridge adorning my vintage Technics turntable. Still running in, but once again I have an analogue source that leaves my CD and SACD player way behind. It's not just the detail, it's the fullness of sound that CDs somehow miss.
Why is this? Leaving aside the ease-of-use issue, how did the world get duped into accepting a format whose sound quality did not match the format it replaced?
