For my it is now and always be about the music snd any way I can get it. I never want to eliminate any of the access I can use. I will always look to add the new as additional options but will never take one step backward. This is why I still have my Nakamichi cassette deck up and running. There are times I just want to put a tape in and kick back, not always the critical sound I want but still has that mellow relaxed sound. Remember it is about the music so always look forward but don’t close any doors behind you.
Who is ditching their shiny disc spinners?
I want to upgrade my digital side … (currently Bluesound Vault 2i feeding the DAC of Oppo 105) … plan to spend around $2k … since I’ve ripped all my CDs to the Vault, thinking of spending it all on a DAC, and retire/sell the Oppo while it still has some value. I do have a few older CDPs I could retain as backup, but not sure why I would ever need.
Alternatively, was considering a better combined CDP/DAC like a newer Marantz or Yamaha … upgrades DAC performance some, and a reliable spinner for quite a few more years … but I have very few SACDs, so feeling like this would be the tail wagging the dog.
In what direction have you been migrating?
