In Reply to: Precentage Thread Below - It's pretty obvious why your guys prefer Analog to Digital posted by Balance on December 4, 2005 at 08:29:26:
It's an Ack dAck filterless, non-oversampling DAC fed by a fifty-buck mildly-modded Toshiba 3950 DVD/CD player. It sounds so good I could, and sometimes do, listen to it all day.But I have three turntables, four tonearms, and endless cartridges, so I'm proving your point, right?
I really don't think so. For one thing, I also have a $3K Sony SACD/CD player I don't listen to much. For another, I've ALWAYS had three turntables (just not the same ones) and my current best-of-breed, doesn't cost that much more than the digital setup. For the record: re-plinthed Lenco L-78, Rega arm, Denon DL-103 cart, Denon step-up trannie.
There's no crap in my system -- well, IMHO. I prefer vinyl if only because I have five times as much of it. It's only been recently that I found digital very listenable indeed. I still (at 76) buy more LPs than CDs. But the bottom line is that it's all music and it can all be great-sounding. The vinyl just sounds a little greater.
