Is analog & vinyl anoying? Is it worht it.

Chadnilz, my darTZeel NHB-18NS preamp, which includes a phono stage (you can have up to 4 separate phono stages installed) is battery powered.

darTZeel preamp

although it is the best phono stage i have heard; there are many great phono stage's i have not heard. it's not cheap but it's wonderful. IMHO battery power; properly executed, is the way to go for preamps.....i don't believe in battery power for amps.

You really sounds as though you should not be in this forum. You should be spending your time with your tv.

Actually some of these "analog vs. digital" threads are far more annoying than vinyl will ever be.

All of course IMO

Your are so right Audiofeil, time to go spin so lps.

Thanks for your input Mike, and I must say your room and gear are #1 of all systems I have seen, I admire you from the cheap seats!
