Funny how streaming/digital still chases that analog benchmark.

Indeed, Audio2.

Where bit depth is 16 bit, that’s 65,536 amplitude values in every sample.  If you were to try and get the same number of amplitude values in a vinyl groove you would fail, because the molecules are too large. Divide the depth of the groove by 65,536 and the result is smaller than a vinyl molecule.  A pure diamond LP, perfectly cut, might just enable 16 bit in theory. 
Vinyl can be cut to an equivalent of about 10 or 12 bit.   Which is one reason the noise floor is higher for vinyl. 

Easy to see who the posers and the vipers are.

Enjoy  both worlds. I have a Black Ice Sound Expander connected to my Yamaha SACD/DAC player, which I love and I use Qobuz too. I  just picked up a Jolida JD 9 II tube phone stage and based on a the recommendation of @dill I upgraded the tubes on both units to vintage 1960's Telefunken tubes and OMG!!!

A significant upgrade and I  still have to break them in. The sound stage coming from  both unit is exceptional producing a much warmer  and detailed presence, as the sound is more alive, and on the turntable it is dead quiet. Much better bass response from the turntable  now too.

That being said I will continue on with  both modalities, with an little analog in my digital. I also have a Rogue Sphinx 3, with a  tube preamp too, are we seeing a pattern here?, and yes I have upgraded those tubes to  1960's Mazda greyplate. I will install them next weekend as I did the Telefunkens this past  weekend.
