Digital is far better than vinyl
I have invested a decent sum of money into my digital setup, including a decent streamer (Innuos Zenith MK3), a very good dac (Denafrips Terminator 2), Eno filter, and good cabling. But after being told by many here that vinyl is vastly superior to digital, I thought let’s build an analog system and see what all the fuss is about. So this is what I did ...
I picked up an Audio Technica TT from Amazon for around $299. I then used one of the older integrated amps with a built-in phono, which I believe I paid around $500 a few years ago. And, finally, just to even out the playing field I bought the cheapest possible cables from alibaba. Since I didn’t have extra rack space to put the TT on, I got a couple of bricks and built a DIY platform for it.
So after listening to the analog setup for a few days, I can proclaim without a shadow of doubt that digital is far, far superior than vinyl on any given day, and twice a day on Sunday.
What has been your experience? And please, don’t mention your gear or any special. cartridges, isolation, etc. Not interested in your system details. I just want to make sure you guys understand that digital is far, far superior than vinyl.
The OP is either seeking clickbait, or is too ignorant to seek knowledge on quality vinyl. And no, I’m not referring to a $10k rig. I don’t have that type of vinyl investment. But even I understand the merits of decent vinyl. Buy an $1800 Marantz TT15S1 turntable, mate it to a solid moving coil cartridge. If you can’t or are unwilling to do that, stick with digital, and simply go unaware of an entire audio world that exists. |
@arafiq some of us read the entire thread and do get it. Some just jump to conclusions (I did a little) and others just have poor comprehension skills.
Cheers and keep up the good work. |
