For the first time...

...my digital rig is besting my analog rig in terms of sonic presence and projection. This has never happened before as I've always been more focused on my analog side, letting the Oppo 105 do its thing. However, with some recent additions and changes, my digital side sounds much better and I'm uncomfortable with that. 

Analog:

• NAD 558 turntable
• Hana SL MC and Clearaudio Maestro V2 MM
• Hagerman Trumpet MC phono stage

Digital

• Oppo 105D BDP
• Schiit Gungnir DAC

Amplifier

• Schiit Ragnarok 2

Speakers

• Reference 3A de Capo-i

I think the Gungnir was the game changer as it added a sonic presence and clarity missing before. I find my analog reproduction seems to strain more to achieve much the same signature and I don't want to jump back on the upgrade train in order to achieve parity. Blah.
