I have listened to 3 $40k analog rigs last year and NONE of them and I mean NONE of them could matchnlet alone better my digital rig. Take that whole it ain't gonna sound analog unless younhave analog with a huge grain of salt. True there are many dacs that claim superiority but sound very digital, Weiss Minerva etc. If you know what you are doing and choose superlative equipment it is very expensive to make analog to match great digital let alone surpass it.
I'm not saying it can't be done, I'm saying that turntable are panacea for sound as some would have you believe.
