What is better, analog or digital?


I'm listening to the Best of Marley on the album, and I have to say it sounds better then digital.   More definition and more realism.  Of Course this is MHO  Using a Rega Planer 1 w a cheaper Project phono amp.  

 Let the debate begin, and what should i change out first for better sound

OP says " Let the debate begin." Members like him that start this same thread 1000 times over never let the debate end. Talk about BORING. 
A diamond needle riding the undulations in a spiral groove on s rotating plastic disc - or an ADC measuring the voltage variations of a microphone signal/ magnetic tape? Each can be made to work well!

You answered your own question: change out the cheap phono stage.

aasen7, there are numerous threads on this subject. Frankly, it all depends. But, if your digital section can't beat out the phonograph system you have on occasion then you have a lot of work to do.
