I'm not an audiophile, but I definitely
could tell the difference in some music (I say "could" because I haven't tested this in a while and my ears aren't what they once were). It only makes sense, digital music is going to be "cleaner" or "sharper" (otherwise, what's the point?) -- the "analog" stylus on the vinyl has to introduce some of kind of difference. There's no way it can't. I'm guessing that "difference" (probably imperfections) is what makes some music seem "richer" to listeners.
