Almost totally digital...Well my low fi. Ish Phillips 212 turntable died in the late 1990' s....got a minidisc ....that died in 2005.....sold most of my albums in 2015, and just this week got the last 30 of them ready to sell.I guess realizing that I will never have a turntable again, plus the fact that of those 30 impossible to replace records....all but 3 are on Spotify has just freed me of the burden of hanging on to my last albums.Now I have to let go ( or recreate) my 40 years of cassette mix tapes!!!!
How many of you are digital only systems?
I currently have an all digital setup, streaming and stored digital files and ripped CD’s on my Innuos Zen mkIII via Chord Qutest to a PrimaLuna EVO 400i. I have been contemplating adding analog to my system, like a Clearaudio concept table. I am NOT hear to debate which one is better, so please don’t turn it into that, I understand the differences. How many of you are digital only? If you listen to digital as well, please tell me why. Is it because of sonic qualities or just the nostalgic reasons of spinning vinyl. I just don’t know if I want a turntable because it would be new gear to play with or if I think it has sonic qualities that I am missing with digital. I would have to buy new vinyl as I really only have a few of my albums from when I was teenager in the 80’s. Maybe I should just put the money towards upgrading digital components, even though I love my Qutest/Zen combo, I could move up in their line?? Am I missing something truly special in the audio world if I’m all digital? Thanks for your thoughts
