I can't see any justification in starting with vinyl nowadays. First there is the investment in the software, second there is the investment in the hardware. There is an opportunity cost in both and even just looking at the hardware alone, money spent on vinyl could be spent on improving one's digital playback. In terms of resource allocation, it is more effective to spend on one optimised system than two compromised systems.
Sound quality of new vinyl recordings.
I would like to get back to vinyl. I have not heard any new vinyl yet but I question the sound quality and I hope someone can help as I have not yet found the answer to my question. Are new vinyl recordings from original analog source or are they just copying digital onto vinyl. If there are both out there what do I look for to tell the difference before I buy
