Analog vs. digital

I’ve found that on my system the digital side is more finely etched than the analog side. Both sound great in their own way, but records just don’t sound so finely defined.
What is your experience?

I'm impressed with the sonics of it. Tremendous soundstage. I'd say it beats my analog setup 70% of the time. Analog investment going into the preamp is roughly $5500 (TT, cartridge, stylus, phono preamp.) The Dragonfly is $330! I do have some have some albums that beat what I've been able to find streaming. In the end, I love vinyl and probably will still seek out particular albums to add to the collection. Streaming is great to listen to music that I'm not sure I want to add to the vinyl collection. I think it will keep the volume of records in check so I don't have walls of vinyl records. The collection is all killer and no filler!
