In Reply to: Precentage Thread Below - It's pretty obvious why your guys prefer Analog to Digital posted by Balance on December 4, 2005 at 08:29:26:

In my post, I clearly indicated that my spend on the analog side was over 3 times that of the digital and that this confirmed that digital was an incredible bargain!!!

I consider my analog rig and my digital rig to be substantially equal in terms of overall sound quality and listening enjoyment.
Sure, there are nits to pick on both but they are damned close!!!

I never left the analog camp, but I also have invested heavily in the digital camp over the years since I love music.
I have had many mis-steps along the way, but I finally reached a point where the digital rig is up to snuff. Also, this is not even close to the most expensive digital front-end I have tried. In fact, it's one of the cheapest!

It's all a matter of numbers now. There is way more R&D investment going on in digital audio than in analog; and that's the way it should be. New music typically only comes in digital format, so it would be stupid to invest otherwise.

I'm gratified that advancements have come fast and furious to the point where even dyed-in-the-wool analog guys can sit and listen to music from a cd without being horrified!

Happy fishing :-)

cheers,

Send an instant karma to me...
