Assuming that your budget is the same as the cost of your W4S DAC2 at about $1500.00 and given you that expect it to sound better than your digital right out of the gates or at least equal to it and that you don't have any vinyl to start.I would recommend you stay with digital. However if you are willing to make the journey over time to a rig that can best digital you can certainly get a setup that will sound good and be very musical. A good start could be pro-ject debut III -w- cart $400 new , and a Cambridge audio 640p it does mm and mc for $180.new and a spin clean record cleaner $80. It gets your feet wet and will leave you money for records and if you don't like it it should resell rather well.
Help newb figure out the best route for new setup
Hi, I'm thinking of making the jump from digital to analog. I've never had or used a phonoplayer before. There are quite a few things to consider when buying phono gear. Since this is a brand new setup i thought it would be great to hear what you guys think is the best route to go and what to stay away from.
Im coming from using CD's and flac files through a Wyred 4 Sound DAC 2.
What is a good brand model table?
Would you go MC or MM and why?
Thing to look for? Options, upgrades etc...
I need it to sound better then my current setup with the W4S DAC2 otherwise what is the point. In fact its gotta sound ALOT better for around the same price. Otherwise convenience, and cost for new music just doesnt make sense.
What do you guys think?
