Hey guys, thanks a lot for the advice. It sounds like there's no easy or cheap way into vinyl. Now I'm leaning toward Flyingred's recommendation and getting the Opus 21 and more CDs. I guess it can never be easy...
Analog newbee looking for advice
So after contemplating buying a universal player, I've decided that there aren't enough titles to justify the cost of a high-end player. As an alternative, I've decided to give vinyl a try. It seems there is a consensus that vinyl sounds better than redbook, so here's my question: How much do I have to spend to get an analog setup that will sound "better" than my redbook setup?
My CDP is Resolution Audio CD55 and I'll be buying an Opus 21 soon (inevitably).
It's my opinion that the production quality of the recording is a bigger factor than the format/media so let's assume we're comparing the same recording on CD/vinyl.
I am actually satisfied with the sound of my best sounding CDs with my current setup, but those great sounding CDs are few and far between...
Please be kind with your responses, I'm too lazy to search the forum for similar questions/answers.
Thanks in advance!
