| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD @mrvordo , very helpful information. Thanks. May I ask which phonostage you use? | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD Thanks. I am satisfied with both, except for the impulse for more, more, more that we addicts feel. Is there anyone out there who has both LP and SACD playback in their systems who feels that one is a lot better sounding than the other? The answer... | |
| Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed? @aberyclark , you've certainly sparked a debate!I am not a golden ear but here are some observations.I inherited a NAD 7250 PE and didn't like it for a new system I was setting up in the basement. Got a Rotel Rx-1052. Huge improvement in side by s... | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD @randy-11,I agree, except I have few if any CDs that sound as good as their LP counterparts. I do have a few SACDs remastered from the same tapes as their well made LPs. I suppose the comparison is not totally a controlled experiment. Remastering ... | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD @teo_audio,Thanks for the encouragement. Your neurophysiologic explanation resonates with some of my experiences. Perhaps the fiscally wise approach would be to stop the education.........Nah! ;^) | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD @lak That’s where I;ll probably go next. I’m looking at Zu or Canare 4S11.There are good deals on both on the Bay. May as well get the 2 to 4 bis.@jperry I think I’d have to spend a pile of cash to better the Sumiko/Jelco. Any cost effective sugge... | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD I see. Thanks for the comments! I think my conclusions area) My system is not capable of resolving the difference in sound quality between analog to analog and analog to digital. I kind of doubt that.b) My hearing has deteriorated to the point tha... | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD Both. ;^) | |
| Here's a fire starter: Analog is as good as SACD What I am getting at is have I hit a plateau with my analog front end; or my system as a whole.I agree analog and digital are tow different animals. I should have said equal; not the same. Those of you who have SACD, DVD-A, etc and analog; which d... | |
| Rate my system and chose the next upgrade Be analytical. If you are enjoying vinyl more than digital, the next upgrade should be something that benefits SACD/CD and DAC sources at a minimum.Integrateds That I have enjoyed are Primare I32, Belles Aria and Belles Soloist. Speakers that are ... | |
| Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps Here's my current new discovery; Nicole Atkins. I may be influenced by the proximity of our Jersey Shore stomping grounds.https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=nicole+atkins&&view=detail&mid=F8465D0B6AF1BFC41077...https://www.bing.com/v... | |
| Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps Jaybe nailed it for #1.Some candidates for #3 (Not the absolute best, but highly under appreciated)Bonnie Raitt. Listen to Cry Like a Rainstorm by Linda Ronstadt (a clear contender for #2). Then Listen to Bonnie's version. Which conveys more emoti... | |
| The Best of Fellow Audiophiles. Fred Scheller, if you are out there, thanks for all the help & education, and for raising my stadards. | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music Oh, Lang's "Constant Craving" is another fav. | |
| After a (weeks) worth of listening... @slaw K D Lang "Live by Request" is also awesome; but I don't have the LP. Does HDCD count?@slaw & @toddverrone,I own no Pearl Jam. I wonder why; but I heard "Black" on the car radio the other day and decided to fix that situation. So which do... |
