Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it?

Mitch4t, sounds like a good solution. Good luck to you and your son.

Timrhu, no disrespect but if you re-read my posting I did say it was "my opinion" and you have also left some of my posting out.

My personal exspearience is digital can't but obviously by reading your statements you just haven't heard a proper set-up like allot of others whom I see posting.

If you don't get to hear such how can you make such comparisons and then make such statemens as you do, shows a lack of exspearience and credibility.

If you like what ever source it maybe good for you, opinions are just that so enjoy!

My current set-up;

- MBL 101e speakers
- Vac Statement 450 mono blocks
- Vac Sig. MK2a pre-amp
- MBL 1621a transport
- Acustic Arts Ref Tube dac
- TW Acustic Black Knight table placed upon a Minus K platform
- Reed 12" arm with MSL Ultra BC cart
- TW 10.5' arm with A90 cart
- Stealth Audio cable through out.

Sorry, but I reread your post and did not find "my opinion" in there.
While I have never owned a hi-end analog set up, I have listened to them. Which is better is purely subjective IMO.
I gave up listening for that purpose as my hearing is deteriorating and I no longer feel qualified to judge at that level.
I do agree with this though.

Different strokes for different folks.

Enjoy!

And back at ya!

I have to chuckle when the come back is;

"I have never owned a hi-end analog set-up"

and

"I gave up listening for that purpose as my hearing is deteriorating and I no longer feel qualified to judge at that level."

Sorry to read for your loss but honestly with no disrespect I would not clasify your red book or system as a whole as hi-end either but do enjoy.

You seem to want to start a debate with me, don't see you responding to the remark suggesting vinyl sucks made which raises a flag to me, it's appears to me you have a hidden agenda.

That statement is so far from being the thruth and ONLY demonstrates lack of credibility from that poster.

I guess I really need to spell it out for you, I never said the specific words "my opinion".

Try reading again, I'll help you, look for key words like;

"I would have to totally disagree"

and

"I've had"

those are "my opinion" got it.

Really makes me wonder how one can judge such if they haven't had in their own set-up and lived with it but seem compelled to push those keys for others to read misleading them.

As I said prior; A top notch digital set-up can be very nice which I've had but once vinyl is played well it's game over, it's as simple as that.

Enjoy!

I would say @$50K that's a pretty high-end red-book set-up.

Got ride of vinyl stash a few years ago , couldn't sell them so I gave them to a friend , no regrets .
