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?
One class D is not digital in anyway, Two his amp has room correction software so if he is using it yes its digitizing all inputs regardless. Three if you dont' have records already i would pass on them its expemcive to do well, takes up considerable room, takes a long time to accumulate records, new records are expencive. If your a collector type maybe records are for you. |
dlevi67, "What do you call the conversion of an analogue signal to a PWM/PDM or ΔΣ modulation and its subsequent filtering to recover an amplified analogue signal?" yes analogue still. no ones and zeroes involved here so not digital. there is no digital (I.e. code) in a class D amp, period. your confusing the differences here. Class D has been around since 1958 well before digital anything was a thing in Audio. I'd suggest you do a google search and read up on the differences, class D was just the next letter in the alphabet after class C. |
