Not as much activity on analog here

Chayro,
Well said!
There's no need for chasing after DACs every "few months" unless you just want to do so. Both Digital and Turntables can provide very long lasting enjoyable music reproduction in one's home. Either source can sound disappointing it not implemented properly. I don't find one inherently superior to the other given the choices now available. Good total system execution is the determining factor.

If that's been your experience with digital I can't argue with what you say
you hear. My experiences mirrors Tomcy6, very good analog and digital
music reproduction and enjoying both immensity (when set up well,
otherwise either can sound poor). I have a very large collection of jazz CDs
from the 1950 -1960s (with numerous duplicate recordings on vinyl which I
owned first). I have many newer digital recordings, both eras of these
recordings sound natural and involving. I can easily get lost in the music
and do very often. I'm currently exclusively CD redbook and just love the
sound in my home. Right now I'm listening to Roy Hargrove and his trumpet
and the accompanying musicians sound in the room present and
harmonically beautiful. To each their own I say. "Some" digital sources
can sound utterly organic and paradoxically "some" analog sources can
sound analytical and sterile, it just depends.
Charles,

Rockitman,
I used vinyl very heavily for over 25 years and have heard many fine analog systems along the way for certain. But really I agree, no point in another repeated debate. I just responded to your comments above and I probably should have left it alone (knowing what this inevitably leads to). Take care everyone.
