Digital recordings on Vinyl


I've generally tried to avoid it but now I'm weighing the difference between getting a really good dac or just just getting the vinyl cuts and playing it on my awesome analog rig. You?

I guess the question could also be "What sounds better, a good digital recording on a good DAC or a good digital recording pressed on vinyl played on a really good analog rig? "
I would argue that it's more about content. I play both vinyl and shiny silver discs not only because some sound better on one format or another, but because so much music is only available on format or another.
per given let's say $5000 on analog vs. digital sources, analogue will very likely win. there are price ranges where found cases vise versa.
I try to stay with digital if recorded that way and the same for vinyl, cannot be done easily these days. I have some vinyl that is from digital sources and vise verse. The vinyl sounds different than the CD in both cases. With some digital to analog recordings the sound stage is better on vinyl, not all.

I also find that with analog to digital recordings the sound stage collapses much more often. I am finding this happening much less as I get away from CD's and use computer based audio.
