Yay yap yap...the answer is NO. If the question is what format is cheapest to reach a decent sound level that would be digital....if you want out of the box easy, Predictable, again it’s digital....if you want something to build on have some Hobby cash and/or time...vinyl. It’s really not that confusing there’s money to be spent, how much do you wanna spend ? How much time do you want to spend running around to acquire what level of quality. Throw in the nostalgia thing that might make a difference.
Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player?
I’m looking into getting a second source as I don’t want to be tied down to internet and a streaming service as my only source. Will a $700 turntable and inexpensive phono preamp out perform a Cambridge CXC transport / Schiit Gungir Multibit?
The Schiit Sol / mani preamp look enticing but I know nothing about turntables.
I used to dj and always used technics Sl1200’s and really liked them. I can pick up a nice SL1200 mk3 used for $600...
I figure that before I start spending hundreds, possibly thousands, on cd’s or vinyl, I should be sure which format I want!
Thanks for any advice / input regarding this 😁
