For the first time...
...my digital rig is besting my analog rig in terms of sonic presence and projection. This has never happened before as I've always been more focused on my analog side, letting the Oppo 105 do its thing. However, with some recent additions and changes, my digital side sounds much better and I'm uncomfortable with that.
Analog:
Digital
Amplifier
Speakers
I think the Gungnir was the game changer as it added a sonic presence and clarity missing before. I find my analog reproduction seems to strain more to achieve much the same signature and I don't want to jump back on the upgrade train in order to achieve parity. Blah.
I have record player, a 1914 Victor-Victrola console that still works perfectly I never play it though : ) I just really like all the convenience of streaming from my smartphone, and nevermind all the new artists that l have discovered from streaming I also own the OPPO BD105 Blu-ray player and l love it I use it to connect my two Subs in my 2 channel stereo rig and use its DSP I also bypass it's internal DAC to an external DAC and also play the occasional SACD and CD's

Dear @simao : Thank's. You can do whatever you want but if I was you I invest any single dime improving the digital alternative.

@rauliruegas Nah. I still love vinyl to much to give up on it. And though I think/hope @mijostyn is being sarcastic, I doubt I'll ever have 2000 lps. I actively listen to all my vinyl steadily. And there are many jazz lp's I can't find on streaming or CD. |
@simao : I said " You can do whatever you want ". You ask I only gave my common sense answer and obviously your common sense is " Nah ". Good, go a had with analog.
