Questions about recording vimyl to computer?
@almarg I have a Peavey 20 channel  mixer with USB out. I have RCA in on 2 channels. I suspect I could plug the phono pre into the Peavey board and output from USB to the computer using audacity. Does that sound like a solution? It is a pro grade ...

@almarg    Thanks for the info & link. As usual I figure a $1  budget and the real cost is  $8. That's the problem with a champagne taste with a beer pocket book. LOL. Now, where to find that other $7

A hearty good day and thanks for all the info. I am digesting it all at this time.  As you can see, I'm not an impulsive buyer. I have considered the WXC 50 Yamaha, Node 2 and now Aurender as a server. Probably after that, a R2R Dac, I know the Au...

CONFOUND RABBIT! Wont let me edit the title!!!! And can't delete. OK its VINYL 
Is it all worth it?
@polkaloverYes, the ritual is a large part. I always tell those looking to get into vinyl that if they don't enjoy that, they won't like vinyl. Then there is the fact that you have an album cover with art and notes that don't require a magnifying ...

@big_gregI love my vinyl but I am 69 yr old now. There will come a time where I won’t feel like doing the ritual which goes with vinyl. Digital is easy...even CD is easier than vinyl. But CDP’s will be extinct very soon. Streaming is the trend.Whe...

@bicuThis was written in 2013. Is it valid? Digital keeps changing and we learn more every day. . The CEO of Aurender disputes this I believe.

Friends, Thanks for all the info. One thing I think is missing is that most of you probably have not looked at my system. It is listed here on A’gon (though w dated picys). But that may be something that most don’t know about. So here it isTeres 3...

@whatsthatbuzz I don’t understand why a streamer would provide better sound than an iPhone Just like all phones are not equal, all streamers are not equal. I’m an old guy and I HATE these little phones. More precisely I hate that people think the...

@ big_gregThose 2 have risen to the top of the list. I just learned I don’t need the vault. I have a new PC. Ripping to Flac is simple in Win 10. So to celebrate my new learnin’ I’m gonna buy a new set of power tubes for my amp. This is the last d...

@big_greg if you want to get the best sound quality, consider something other than the Bluesound line. Investing in something with a better DAC will have more of an impact on sound quality than whether the files are stored on a spinning hard drive...

@uberwaltzI think majority of members here who refer to streaming really mean accessing an online music service over the internet.Like Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify etc. I believe you are right. I've been in the analog realm for so long I don't know the ...
