You may have the best, most open sounding system/equipment in the world, argue all the positive/negative virtues of LP, PCM or DSDxBillion until the cows come home, but your system can only replay the inherited quality within its source. Feed any system the most compressed version of Hotel Cal., and guess what, you'll hear the most compressed version of Hotel Cal.
Personally, while I understand the importance, I think audiophiles place too much importance attempting to correlate measurements w/equipment choices/formats.
