Would I be wasting my money to get a turntable?

I am thinking about getting a turntable but I have a Class D amplifier (Nad M33) which digitizes all the analog inputs. If the amplifier is just digitizing the source is there going to be any difference between the vinyl and just listening to lossless digital streaming sources? Is there any benefit to me, given my current amplifier with has no analog pass through capability, to adding a turntable to my system?

carsbad yes it has an analog input which is them digitized so analog goes through an a to d conversion process no ANALOG PASS THROUGH ON THE M33

Guys we are an NAD dealer the m33,does indeed digitize an analog signal in order to use DiRAC Room Correction for all sources.

 

so your answer is the analog input will sound different then streaming but if you want to hear the best in analog I would trade in the m33 and go up up to the nad M66 which has a true analog Preamp as well as an improved dac.

guys the misinformation here is staggering we are an nad dealer THE M33 DIGITIZES EVERY ANALOG SIGNAL INORDER TO BE ABLE TO USE Dirac

 

The amplifier type and design has nothing to do with it
