Frail and Bedazzled


I just set up my vinyl rig and I must say I didn't expect it to best my digital setup by this margin. My 2-3 best SACDs through my digital rig may compete but damn...I am having a personal vinyl resurgence. Merry Christmas all.

I'm in a similar circumstance in which my vinyl rig is way more invested in than my digital rig and the sound reflects that.

If you are disappointed with digital get a Vacuum Tube DAC such as the Audio Research DAC 9. It will make digital files sound more analog.

I did exactly that and have been using a Lampi Atlantic TRP for the past year.  It has made my digital much more engaging for sure.
I still enjoy my digital gear and have it playing throughout the day on Tidal and Quobz. I am sure once the new wears off a bit it may not seem like there is a distinct gap between the vinyl set-up and the digital. In the end, its like two good flavors of ice cream.
There you go Trout, to good flavors of ice cream. I like that. Come to think of it I'm going to get me some vanilla :-)
Nice Dac Three Easy Payments. Never heard of it before so I checked out their web site. 
I use a Tube phono stage and have thought about getting tube DACs but I would need two of them. Nobody that I know of makes a 4 channel DAC. The subwoofer cross overs are done digitally and my system is a 2.2 set up. 4 channels. I just pissed away all my Hi Fi money for the next year buying a new turntable and speakers so the DACs are on the rear burner. I also want to get a laser projector. It never ends.
