Have digital players improved

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.

one can make the case that components of the 60's through the 80's, when configured sound better than today's better stereo system.

the point is "better" sonically is highly subjective.

I've recently been listening to a John Scofield recording called "A Moment's Peace" using an upsampling DAC (CD ripped to computer using a lossless format). It sounds amazing...stunning. Also recently been listening to an LP of Bill Evans' "Waltz for Debbie" on my Linn...also sounds amazing...stunning. I win.
