Fabsound,
I have a top quality analog set up. I have a reasonably decent digital front end too but never use it. I agree, digital always sounds like digital. I'm not talking about the digital glare of the 1990s but the flat lifeless sound which has never compared to good analog which still prevails. I've heard the best world class digital with HD downloads at show after show and I've never walked out of a room saying " I gotta have that," Yes, my cdp is going on this website this week in the hopes I can sell it. Several hundred cds are going to give away before Thursday for donation. By the way, digital on vinyl as Fremer says always sounds better than its aluminum cousin. He doesn't know why nor do I but it does. I need the room for more records. Let me add that ORG and most reissues pressed at QRP are sounding terrific these days AnalogProductions although I do quite a bit of buying on eBay or Music Stack.
