I have thousands of vinyl records, and this is after me and the wife have engaged in more than a few serious cullings. If you don't have vinyl already, though, I'd politely pass on the format. Digital quality continues to get better, and I enjoy the hell out of it. It has to be said, however, that a wall of LP's does soften a room's acoustics quite nicely.
Analog or digital ????
I’m finishing off my home theater it’s about 95% done. I’m pretty happy with the way it sounds acoustically, and happy the way the system sounds and stereo.
WTS, what would you do in this situation, would you purchase a turntable and maybe a phono stage, or would you purchase possibly a nice tube DAC, along with a nice transport.
The bottom line here is would you go analog or digital, I have looked into the analog side and I am totally positive I am purchasing a Denon DP 59L… I have yet to consider a DAC and a transport so I have no offerings in that arena
I didn’t want to post a digital thread, and separate analog thread so I hope this can stay in the music section because it really is about music.......
PS: if you’re interested in the rest of the system it’s a Denon X4300 Receiver that I’m using as a pre-pro, it feeds seven Mono outlaw audio M 200s. The speakers are a DIY dual 8 inch woofers a single 6 inch mid range in a 1 inch dome tweeter all the drivers are sourced from Dayton audio the RS series the RS225,RS150,RS28a it’s a WTMW configuration, essentially it’s three center channels as my left center right. The subs are vintage AdireAudio 15”Tumults, in sealed cabinets each 15 is powered by a QSC 1450 bridge mono and im useing a MiniDSP for the sub woofers, but due to the freedom of placing the subs where I want and where they sound best I’m not using any of the EQ so at this point it literally just splits the incoming signal four ways I could actually remove it but I’m too lazy it’s working fine :0)
