I have invested equally in my vinyl leg and digital streaming... ($45K each). They sound the same ( I carefully selected cartridge / phonostage and streamer / DAC to zero in on natural / musical sound with details exactly in perspective), although streaming can sound better when playing high definition content. I never play my vinyl any more although I have a collection of 2,000 pristine and audiophile recordings. If I was starting over now, I would skip the vinyl and put all my money into streaming.
+1 @ghdprentice Well that is a pretty good testimonial. I have read this many times on other forums as well.
And streaming is still getting better.
