"organic, spacious, with wonderful texture and presence and warmth."Prof, you seem to claim that you can get those things from vinyl without high-end hardware. While all I hear is a flat pasty sound; the same one the multitudes rejected, and they... 
Vinyl***What If***
BTW, I can relate to everything everyone says about vinyl except one thing; when that needle falls in the groove, if I don't hear sweet music, the thing can go in the trash as far as I'm concerned. Sweet music means better than CD. 
Vinyl***What If***
Although my 35 year old son has been around records since he was born, he doesn't have a record, or CD player, and uses wireless headphones to listen to his music that comes from a source I know not where. Now if I'm not making an effort to influ...

Prof, it ain't that subjective; something that's rated Class A by Stereophile and TAS will sound better than something rated Class C. The only thing that's subjective is the music one chooses to play on the equipment. While there is truth to sub...

You're not talking to a "Newbee"; I've been around, I was at the Dead Sea when it died, and I was at the Red Sea when they dyed it red, I can go all the way back to the Gramaphone when vinyl really sucked.When CD came out, the multitudes had Gerra... 
A DAC that can make digital sound analog?
Some people who make inquiries about analog have lots of money to spend, I say to those people "Have fun"; but when someone comes up with a 1K budget; I say keep your money in your pocket until it adds up to 3K; that's my advice.

R2R tape has come a long way; while I had no problem with Maxell, especially double EE tape, the latest tape that I used last night is even quieter; tape noise is no longer a problem, for certain on my modified R2R. 
A DAC that can make digital sound analog?
The audible frequency is from 20K t0 20,000K according to audio magazines, but in reality, a persons ability to hear falls off rapidly after 16,000K. This can easily be verified by amplified test tones on a loudspeaker.

I do not know one single solitary person who was into analog who went back. They don't even play their old records. The know, after a lifetime of records and record players, that the fuss is about "expensive" high end analog.I'm not trying to in...

It's almost comical that I can't believe there are those who don't know what life was like before CD; that's how old I am, and fail to realize there are people so young they don't remember those days."Analog", is the first joke, only we just calle...

I can't find "brickwalled" in my electronics dictionary.  Could you provide evidence of this new electronics term in regard to CD's.

Clearthink, it's quite apparent that you don't have R2R and you've never done this, so why did you take the time to make such an "unscientific" comment?While you're making baseless comments, I'm enjoying the most incredible musical sound ever hear...

If anyone wants to turn CD's into "superior" LP's, just record them on a good R2R at 15 IPS, and you will get what sounds like fantastic vinyl, without the record noise and ticks on playback.
