"I've heard playback on phonograph/vinyl a number of times at the audio show and I Just Don't Get It."Particularly on my genre (classical) it it either just OK, or substantially flawed and obviously congested with prickly pops compared to clear modern digital."
If I had to speculate, the setup(s) were less than ideal.....
If all the alignments and adjustments are spot-on, vinyl will beat digital..... But if anything is off, whether it's vertical tracking angle, azimuth, anti-skate, rotational alignment (Baerwald/Loefgren/Stevenson), or even overhang, digital will beat vinyl.
