Does Age Matter?


Having read and contributed to several threads on the digital vs analog controversy I developed a nagging itch that suggested it is older people that prefer analog and younger people digital. If this is the case than there is most definitely a nostalgic element to that opinion. Perhaps we can answer that question. I will go first. Please do not ruminate on the differences. Age and preference, digital, analog or both! We'll tally the results at the end. 

I am 67 and like Both analog and digital.

I' am 70, listen to hifi for the beginning of the seventies and practise vocal jazz within a musician and chorus ' group 2hours per week ( prior confinement...)
My hifi system is 30 years old in average ,analogic  thorens td 124 ,sme 3012, at 33 ptg cartridge, Conrad johnson tube and solid state gears, focal loudspeakers..

Digital is shared between A730 Studer  cd and streaming through Qobuz hi res...
As a results I got the best of the two world....old analogic gears are lovely and the streaming in 24bits 96khz is fantastic to reproduce the master studio in term of dynamic!

Audiophiles people should go to the concert to hear that the reality is also not perfect....
