I collect records, and I do not notice a big difference. The difference is only present when listening to a vinyl album that was recorded in the 60's - 80's. The vinyls released now sound exactly like CDs.

Definetely buy a "vintage" turntable though, the new ones aren't of very good quality.

You mean the ones that are generally mastered from digital sources sound the same as a digital device?
