They are both capable of fine performance but digital sources are far more cost effective. Vinyl playback is a REALLY deep rabbit hole. You can't match the best digital performance until you spend at least $35,000 in total on a record playing set up. You still have to contend with bad pressings, warped records and a host of other issues. 

Us old guys with huge record collections have no choice but younger people without records are better off staying digital and spending the money on music. 

@mambacfa , I can record records in 24/192 and snap back and forth between the actual vinyl and the digital copy. Nobody can hear a difference. If there is a difference in mastering between the digital and analog copies that will make a difference and it can go either way. Gains have to matched carefully or the louder version will sound better. If your digital performance is always behind the vinyl then you have work to do on your digital side. It should not be!
