Article: "Spin Me Round: Why Vinyl is Better Than Digital"

Enjoy your moldy bread ..... I mean vinyl.

He isn't wise, he was uneducated. Not recognizing his own lack of knowledge is not wise.

Audio2design vynil is not for someone who is not willing to try, analog takes time sink in, it took me close to 30 yrs before I tried it seriously.

Vinyl can provide a very rewording playback, and there is a good chance that a combination of that particular mastering process and the colorations introduced by vinyl will provide a superior (for you) listening experience on a given track.

However, it is purely wrong to continue the belief that it provides a more accurate playback than modern digital. It does not.

I think that digital can be on par with vinyl, but you are too harsh... Accurate is one thing, naturalness of timbre another, and the naturalness of timbre implies more factors than only accuracy of dac....

The complexity of this problem cannot be reduced to harsh choices...For example you cannot recreate the recording room atmosphere even with a good dac or turntable in a bad listening room and in a house with a too high noise floor and with too much vibrations and resonance in the different components....

I think like you that digital is not under vinyl at all nowadays, thanks to this technology... But analog cannot be dismiss by the back of the hand... For most ordinary listener, the complex intricacies of the factors imbricated makes any dogmatic affirmation only that: dogmatic...

Musical sound is not reducible to electronic designed numbers, we must add many other factors in the equation....

An audio system exist in a room and in a house for some ears for example, not mainly on his blueprint measured design table....

A working audio system must be designed before playing, but it must be embedded somewhere in some way to be judged by some ears....

The embeddings ways ( mechanical electrical and acoustical)can transform ANY system to another level completely or limiting it in a destructive way.... This is the reason why reviews are anecdotal stuff only except treated statistically, and it is also the reason why judging audio system only by the design measured numbers is not enough at all...

Its pretty simple isn’t it?  A record or analogue signal has a complete soundwave whereas digital is bits of that soundwave, no?
