Would I be wasting my money to get a turntable?

The overwhelming majority of you guys aren’t answering his question. He’s not simply asking is adding a vinyl rig worth his time and money.

He’s asking, since he has an amp that digitizes analog signals (you know like turntables) would that negate the point of having a vinyl rig.

So, this thing takes an analog signal, digitizes it, then converts it back to analog?

Why?

Hoowee !

The big brains are out today!

You guys are impressive...

So, it has an ADC/DAC in it?

A lot of folks on line, even some learned ones thinks the ’D’ stands for digital and writes as if the amp is when as far as I can tell when delving a bit into it isn’t correct.

@grislybutter ,

I was of course responding especially to your super awesome graph thingy...

Did you just trade him a graph for a turntable??!

Dibs on the second one! Best I can do is send you a graph explaining how rubber chickens are funnier than fake dog poop...

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Because I have no clue what you're talking about.

@grislybutter , et al.-

Here is the lowdown on how this thing works.

It only digitizes an analog input signal if you’re running something like BluOS and want to send it to another system that can receive it which obviously requires a digital signal. If you’re not doing that and just using it for straight up 2 channel by itself, analog inputs are not digitized and they stay unmolestedly analog. Can't speak for any other amp, but that's the scuttlebutt around the barbershop on this one. So, with that knowledgeable information in hand (if it is indeed accurate), we can safely conclude that yes, you can enjoy that sweet analog turntable sound through it.

Now, someone riddle me this; if the album you just bought was pressed from a digital source, is there even a point in playing it?

@grislybutter ,

Also don’t forget " inspecting your albums anally"...

'Hot tweeter'?? Sounds like a really good looking sparrow.

Actually I've heard the term a few times. I believe it can refer to a tweeter that is brash and sibilant or prone to fricative consonant sounds.

@2psyop ,

Sorry about your mom, man.

Buying a turntable and playing those records is a great way to reminisce and stay connected with those good memories.

@immatthewj ,

Why am I suddenly batting flashbacks of poop jokes??!

Relevant or irrelevant, @audiotroy is correct.

I was given the wrong information from another company that sells them.

It does indeed digitize all incoming analog signals.

Still shouldn't deter you from getting a turntable.

You are gonna have a blast!

You’re not gonna get a lot of sleep tonight...

Enjoy!

@fritzenheimer ,

Man, get to bed. You're seeing double...
