Your "eureka" digital moment


I got into digital in 86 or 87. Very conveniant but I never gave up on vinyl. Digital was ok but something did not "make sense" musically. Until 2001 when I bought a second hand meridian 508.24. Then digital made sense. No, not a perfect player (dynamics were polite) but oh what a listenable player. That was when I finally got digital.

My "digital moment" came this past week after I replaced the two stock fuses in the ARC CD7se with the SR RED fuses. I thought the player was good before, but now ... WOW! Digital in my house has now gone from "convenience" to running serious competition with my vinyl rig. 

On the "snap, crackle and pop" ... I have thousands of LPs, both mono and stereo. Many are 50 years old and older and contain music that's not available on CD. I'll take a little tape hiss and a little noise in order to enjoy the music that's hidden in those grooves. And by the way, many of my records are just about silent ... even the mono recordings.
