Cds are almost always mastered louder so that argument means nothing.

But I adjusted the volume of playback so that it matched between sources if that’s what you mean.

Even at the same overall volume, the percussion “kicked” more, the bass was deeper, and the higher frequency instruments had more detail.

For example, on orchestral recordings (I have the entire star WARS trilogy on soundtrack in both vinyl and CD form to compare) on t he record I hear violins, cellos, tubas, trombones, trumpets, flutes, piccolos, etc. On the Cds I just hear strings, brass, and woodwinds. There’s just an extra quality and detail to vinyl that perhaps can’t be explained in technical terms.
