@rauliruegas I'm not going to say all digital recordings are not great, just the majority of them, IME. OTOH, I can think of one that is actually reference quality...and it is the MoFi Allison Krauss and Union station Live album. This one is a superb recording and enjoyable on a number of different levels.
The very best sound: Direct to Disc
Since I got a new cartridge (Clear Audio Virtuoso) i’ve rediscovered the Sheffield and RR Direct Disc albums in my collection.
Wow! they put everything else to shame. I picked up about twenty Sheffield D2D’s when Tower Records went out of business for a song (no pun intended.) I’m just now listening to them and find there’s nothing that sonically compares. They’re just more real sounding than anything else. Not spectacular but realistic.
