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.

It’s great that you enjoy analog, but your need to rant against digital indicates a little insecurity. Do the rants make your vinyl sound better?

I would just enjoy your music however you please and allow others the same courtesy.

Just FYI, vinyl sound is not the goal for most digital listeners.  We are looking for something much better and I think we will inevitably get it.
So skypunk, your ambition is to be the obnoxious drunk of Audiogon?  Congrats.  You've got a good start here. 

And you chose such a unique way to demonstrate your bravado.  Analog is better than digital?  Never heard that one before!

My suggestion is for you to grow up.  You'll find it makes music and all kinds of things better.
