Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig?

I've recently moved heavily into streaming and digital playback.  That system's core is the Denafrips Terminator Plus DAC with an Innuos Zenith Mk 3 / Phoenix USB.  Just added a LHY Audio SW-8 ethernet switch. Great cables all the way around. By most standards this is a reasonable mix of gear.  I run the Innuos Sense App as it sounds better than Roon. Love the convenience of digital and infinite supply of tunes from Qobuz.  My problem is this.  My vinyl rig generally sounds better.  Sometimes by a wide margin. Do others with both rigs have the same problem?

My streaming and vinyl are very close. I believe the reproduction is quite good. I also know some on this board have better systems than mine and find vinyl and digital to be very close. The good side of this for you is that upgrading digital is far less expensive than upgrading analog. BTW..your system is extremely impressive..

I’m a bit confused as to what you use the computer for. Does it function as a music server? You said that you don’t use Roon…which I missed the first read through.
