this may sound odd, but I try and get my vinyl to sound like cd and my cd to sound like vinyl. By that I try and get cd warmer and the vinyl to sound clearer and distortion free
Worth pursuing analog sound from digital?
Hi all,
I recently acquired a PS audio Nuwave dac which has eliminated most of the digital harshness compared with my old dac but it's still not as smooth and harsh-free like vinyl. I was wondering if it's worth pursuing that analog sound from digital without spending a fortune and if it's even possible. I know lots of digital lovers will say digital can be as good as vinyl but is it really?

rauliruegas I forgot: Do you know that our brain has a very complicated sampling rate for harmonics that we think we can’t hear? >>>>>I did not know that. 🤪 |
I'm no expert but I like vinyl sound more than digital even with it's vices because real sound is not harsh. Analog has it's own coloration but at least there's no harshness to the reproduction. This is the only reason I don't favor digital. If it's possible to remove the digital harshness completely, then there's no advantage to vinyl, imo. |
