Also true for modern, but there are some "lofi pressings" for stuff like Inquisition, The Exploding Hearts and such that have extremely low DR (like 1 or 2), because they're supposed to sound like shit. For 99% of music though, you will have better DR on vinyl, but there were some 80s CDs that had very high DR, sometimes even higher than vinyl (which didn't matter that much, because the difference was 1 or 2 DR more in the CD releases, which often had inferior mastering anyway, resulting in CDs that sounded very thin and hollow when compared to the bassy, warmer tones of vinyl) (see: '87 Beatle CDs vs. '87 Beatle vinyl reissues). Only case where I could recommend getting CDs is in japanese music, specifically old japanese CD pressings, because those ones had audiophile sound quality most of the time, and a lot of the times they even had scaled artwork that matched the LP releases, but I would still recommend you get the vinyl if you can. I recently got a Momoko Kikuchi vinyl reissue that sounded pretty much as good as the original 80s CD but had better artwork, so I could have gone for the OG CD for probably the same price as the new vinyl or less without too much of a problem. It also is smaller, the CD, so that would be good if you lack the space for vinyl in your home.

Just listen to a vinyl rip of any album and you'll get it; it's just a more bassy, fuller, midrangey type of sound without shrill trebles or booming basses ruining the experience or being annoying. Compare this yeule stuff for a modern example of what I'm saying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePvc8f_O7Kk&t
The vinyl record has much more midrange and softer bass and treble than the digital release, which results in a sound that is more pleasant and less straining to the ears than the DR / CD release, which has very strident trebles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arfse3z5YzQ
