Well to be honest not really sure what I’m unhappy with. It has not been hooked up for over a year. If memory serves it sounded smooth but not real dynamic. Basically just wondering if upgrades to the Carbon were worth it. Sounds like yes... to a point which is kind of what I was thinking.
I’ll have to hook everything back up this week and take a good listen, maybe I can pinpoint what I think could be improved a little better.
I enjoy the physicality of things like records vs streaming. I keep reading from all the audiogoners that even their tens of thousands of bucks worth of digital is not as good as the best vinyl. I’ve yet to hear that but would like to. Seems like that is the ultimate goal with digital is a hope to come close to vinyl, tape, whatever analog medium.
There is probably 20 albums I play on Quobuz the most so the wide world of digital is not that wide for me. Not to say I don’t check new stuff out from time to time.
