Funny how streaming/digital still chases that analog benchmark.


Funny how manufacturers of streaming and digital gear continues to chase that elusive analog sound. I thought digital was better?

Before you all get your panties in a wad I enjoy both Digital and Analog but much rather listen to an analog source than digital.

So today I see  Innuos Introduces The PhoenixNET – A Network Switch For Audiophiles @ only $3500.00

Guess I do not see the point you can get superior sound for say $2500 or less with a decent turntable cartridge combo and phono stage. Hell Clear Audio has an all in one for $2500.

I just don’t get it and I do not care to either.

No analogue music company brags about how digital their product sounds. They just don’t.

it isn’t because analog or digital is better... music IS analog by its fundamental nature

analog as in "not digitized"... not analog as in "in a record groove" (which may sound nice, but has its own distortion, noise and compression, not to mention it has usually been digitized in getting there)

proper distinctions are important, enough conflation in our world as it is...
