Worth pursuing analog sound from digital?

Anyone who’s spent time in a good digital studio knows a first generation multi track digital mix can sound very transparent and engaging. 

Commercial digital releases are sampled and resampled at least 4 times so they just can’t sound as liquid as analog or the original tracks. 

Too bad record companies don’t release multi track releases with sub mixes to be listened to on a program like Reaper or Pro Tools. That would be a whole new ballgame. Until then, although my digital system is more expensive I usually listen to vinyl. 

Yes it’s possible - EAR Acute Classic, Audio Note DAC and Lampizator Big 7 willl serve your needs. 

My system sounds amazing. No harshness. I have detail, an expansive sound stage, and the voices sound like they are in the room with me. Digital streaming and class d amplifiers. Worth it!

Raise your hand if you wear glasses so you can see 20/20.

Raise your hand if you have corrective hearing devices that normalize the environmental damage and adjust hearing parameters according to your effective 'listening' age.

So even since Ben Franklin we've been able to smooth out differences in vision.  Now, other than 'hearing aids' the same does not exist for hearing and there is no 'standard' other than hearing 'beep' 'beep' at difference frequencies, which is not the same as hearing music or reading a street sign at 40 feet.  The only true benchmark we have is getting a 12-year old to listen to something and we deduce what we missed by them describing what they heard.

How many still cling to their black box faux wood grain 27" CRT's playing S-VHS?  That's analog.

But how many think our 4K TVs are actually showing 4K...or even HD...it's digital anyway....but it's okay for vision....I just ignore the sloppy compression and carry a film projector with me just in case.

Listening age is an old wives tale.
