Why no interest in reel to reel if you're looking for the ultimate sound?


Wondering why more people aren't into reel to reel if they're looking for the ultimate analog experience? I know title selection is limited and tapes are really expensive, but there are more good tapes available now than ever before.
People refer to a recording as having "master tape quality",  well you can actually hear that master tape sound through your own system and the point of entry to reel to reel is so much more affordable than getting into vinyl.  Thoughts?

Dear @scar972  : I think that you can make some changes in your analog rig to improve the quality level of your analog experiences with.

As I posted that ZYX could be better served by a solid/gimball bearing tonearm as: Kuzma 4 point, Durand gimballed  ( not the unipivoted. ), Reed, VPI gimballed or SME and Triplanar.

In the other side try that the LP stays in direct contact inside the TT with no metal type of mats. If you can try to find out the vintage/out of production Sota Mat    that with out doubt is second to none in that place along the Basis Audio reflex clamp.

Thopse changes can gives you better quality overall performance levels.

My systyem main target is to put every kind of distortions / noises/resonances/etc at minimum and from this kind of way of think and no matters what I stay as far away I can from tube electronics ( any. ) that I experienced in the past till I learned.

Raul, anytime somebody eliminates tubes, that tells me beyond any shadow of a doubt, that they like "sounds" as opposed to music.

While you get 0 distortion, 0 noise you're not getting pure music; only tubes deliver that.

Not sure how this is relevant here but I must say  that I fully agree. 
Get a B-77 and an Opus 3 sampler and you will know :-)
or a great DAC and server
or a superb TT

enjoy all three

peace

I like the Sota mat and Basis Audio reflex clamp recommendation.
Your ideas on how I can improve my quality levels are more or less your personal preference. I'm more satisfied with my vinyl setup now than ever before and it performs at a high level.
