It is pretty nice and informative! I just have a hard time reading all the detail. Was the original higher resolution?
That is pretty strong drop in bass response of the LP.Without proper provenance data, it's difficult to say if this is yet another apple/grapefruit type comparison, but it's telling never-the-less, especially considering this particular rip was derived from a mega-buck "Hi-End" rig w/supposed "superior" vinyl.

Reality had nothing to do with it.
Tim, I plan to do a video on that very topic. Alas, got "hit" with gorgeous warm weather all of a sudden and taking care of the garden is taking priority .Two questions from the peanut gallery:
1) Anybody know of a resource those of us in the gallery can go to that would give a basic tutorial on how to read these charts?
. Welcome to the forum Werner.I had my epiphany at the age of 17 (*), reading a part of a series in a local magazine that attempted to analyse what all of this is about. That series could be summarised as "high fidelity is a giant misunderstanding".
(* Not really. It took me another 20 years or so to really understand it.)
Let me be a bit more clear. I actually want to incorporate the differences in mastering in the analysis, not just physical format to physical format.
Right now, in many instances I find LP to have an annoying signature and many distortions. I want to understand why others do not hear these and have such strong preference for LP. I hope to create some sample clips for us to listen to since I have these rips.
