Digital is far better than vinyl

This debate is very similar to the tube vs solid state arguments we have heard for years. With equivalent level equipment comparing the same recording, it does, to a large extent, depend on personal preferences. Those who prefer a warmer rounded sound compared to high definition and precise spatial resolution have every right to opt for tube equipment. This argument carries over to vinyl vs. LP, and when the comparison is made fairly (at the equipment and recording level) it may indeed come down to personal audio listening preferences.

Do keep in mind the incredible number of superb recently remastered high resolution recordings that were originally released on vinyl.

Let’s move on!

Thanks, @thyname  I had the exact questions. If dealers are going to jump in, better show some proof when making sweeping generalizations. 

Regardless, there are a number of folks like lalitk or @ghdprentice who might disagree with the dealer. They have put together reference systems and feel the digital is just as good if not better  

"I just want to make sure you guys understand that digital is far, far superior than vinyl." In your opinion, not in mine. I also find this comment arrogant .

By the way, @bigkidz my system might be modest by your standards but I have heard reference level analog systems many times. We are talking total system cost over $70k. You remind me of those patronizing dealers I’ve encountered in the past. Lol

@laoman please look up satire in the dictionary. Obviously, I was being facetious. Good lord!
