Analog First Timer.

I would like to take the analog plunge. I hear time & time again how a proper analog set-up is by far better in sound quality & soundstage than a much more expensive digital set-up. I am currently running the Wadia 270-27ix clocklinked digital running through a BAT VK50SE pre-amp. What analog components would you recommed that would outperform; in all facets; my current digital set-up. Also what analog components player a bigger role in soundstage & sound quality.
Thank You.

To start up without dissapointment sufficient and enough to outperform on some records your digital setup will be:

inexpancive J.A.Michell Gyro SE MKIV,
inexpancive Shelter 501 if ordered directly from Japan,
inexpancive RB300 tonearm with Michell VTA,
and I would strongly recoommend BAT VK P5 phono.

I do not think that if you'll go for cheaper analogue setup(Rega P3/RB300/Rega Elys/... for instance)you will outperform your current digital setup.
