Parity
I’ve finally achieved parity between my digital and analog sides.
With the acquisition of a new turntable ((Feickert Volare,) I’m at last enjoying both formats equally.
An observation between the two: They are definitely different in character and each has its own sonic signature. Analog is more spacious and for lack of a better word, mellow. Digital is more finely etched. Each has a very well defined sound stage.
Both are a pleasure to listen to now.
@bdp24 : Well said. Spot on! But…. It is what it is. @rvpiano : I am not surprised with your findings. From my (failed) experience with vinyl a few years back, I realized pretty quick I had to spend a lot more money on my vinyl gig to match the performance of my digital rig. Money I don’t possess. So I abandoned my vinyl project completely. Now I only have a digital system, that’s where I focused. And I don’t regret it one bit. Now… if one is “digital is just zeroes and ones” type, then analog will most certainly sound better than the lowly digital “system” put together based on that concept |
