Worth pursuing analog sound from digital?


Hi all,

I recently acquired a PS audio Nuwave dac which has eliminated most of the digital harshness compared with my old dac but it's still not as smooth and harsh-free like vinyl. I was wondering if it's worth pursuing that analog sound from digital without spending a fortune and if it's even possible. I know lots of digital lovers will say digital can be as good as vinyl but is it really?

i have read many of your posts and enjoy your enthusiasm.  However I have to comment on your opinion of vinyl rigs and records as superfluous material.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion, so here is mine.  Nothing could be more superfluous than a collection of rocks and minerals linked together by wires and some sort of electrical box in the music room.   I say this as a professional geologist while listening to Uriah Heap on CD.
Enjoy the music!
I am very pleased to learn that analog music is better for one’s health. Old fart audiophiles should be pretty healthy and look forward to a lot more listening. I know I get a good workout moving this stuff around.   

Incorporating my mineral and rock collection is way down the list of possible system improvements and tweaks that circulate in my brain.  Actually it is not on the list.  Just can’t go that far. Great that it has worked for you.

Back to the topic.   Yes, by all means  push digital as far as you can and want to.  It sounds like music to me.
