Have digital players improved

Rockitman,,, Nice system, nice system link, thanks for inviting us into your room.
But by looking a your great analog rig and not seeing a CD player, I'm wondering if you had spent the same time and money on both formats that you might see things differently.

I have a memory transport, not a cd player. It plays up to 24/192 wav files burned on DVD-R... The PS Audio Perfect Wav System. While I have not spent nearly as much as on my analog rig, the PS Audio holds it's own as being one of the better digital playback system's available at any price. There are some great digital recordings. In the end though, my analog setup best's it by a good margin for delivering musical reality.

Wildoats, I do not agree with with several points made in your posting and you must being speaking for your self when you refer to "act offended as if their opinion is what counts and is the only legitimate position" blah! blah!

All one has to do is read some of your past posting and see such along with what you are comparing and say you prefer your red-book, please!

These posting are sooooooo boring and as I have already posted have been going on for years so just read them, why do you need to start up another one, you guys need to just keep on dreaming.

I laugh when I read postings such as yours in responce with your snarky additude switching things arround because such remarks really just demonstrates you are the one feeling this way and suggesting others but your self have an opinion.

My thoughts are you just have not heard such so keep spinning those disc and do enjoy!

I would put my red-book combo up against any posters on this thread as I have heard most and sorry I feel non are in the same league.

That's my opinion and I'm not trying to defend anything nor do I feel offended.

Then I would put on the same vinyl pce already listened to on my RED-BOOK and it's game over I preffer and don't and haven't had one person listen whom differed. Doesn't matter if you are exsperienced or not, it's so blatantly obvious.

In the end I'm after listening and so are you and others so do enjoy!

Merry Christmas! Happy Holiday! and New Year!

It's a common high-end condition. If the rest of the world still preferred vinyl, every high end system here would be 100% digital. And CDs would cost 100 dollars each. And be very hard to find. The main thing is to be different, exclusive, to be one of the chosen few. Besides, you have to do a lot of stuff to play a record, that hands on, I'm part of the process feeling.

I'm not claiming one format is better than the other but I see many music lovers preferring one over the other. Both formats have there virtues and anyone that feels one is superior to the other in every way has not been exposed to enough of both.
Anyone else notice that whenever there is a post such as this, it seems the analog loving folks stop by to say their format is the only one worth hearing. If their that narrow minded why are they trolling the digital site's. I like both, what's their hangup.
