Digital recordings on Vinyl

I've generally tried to avoid it but now I'm weighing the difference between getting a really good dac or just just getting the vinyl cuts and playing it on my awesome analog rig. You?

And so much modern vinyl has defects not found on the original generation vinyl. I'm assuming you don't have a DAC yet or are you looking for an upgrade?

As discussed here many times, they're 2 different formats and I think the key to good digital is more than just the DAC. You have to consider all the components such as the master clock, the right cable and choosing tube or SS DAC for your individual system. So I guess I'm saying a great digital setup will provide a great listening experience and can be just as enjoyable as vinyl. As long as you don't get into the analogue vs digital wars.
