Reply to comment by shofmon88 in Audio-Technica resurrects its Sound Burger portable turntable from the '80s by thebelsnickle1991

It's silly because in some cases the album is mixed differently for vinyl because you can't go as hard on the bass iirc.

And sometimes, the label insists on overly compressing the CD and digital formats, while allowing the artist to have uncompressed audio on vinyl. Red Hot Chile Peppers is a perfect example. Go listen to just about any of their albums on CD, then listen on vinyl. In the end, it's all about how well the album is mixed and if compression is (over) used.
