One of the great things about Vinyl


Is I find myself listening to recordings all the way through.

Rarely do that with CD's and/or streaming.

GHD Prentice: That used to be true with me for many years, until I finally was able to raise the quality of sound in my digital end to that of my vinyl. Now both are completely engaging and I get wrapped up in the music on a CD or streaming

 

Well said!  I found exactly the same thing.

Thank you @ddrave44

 

From some much earlier questions.

 

My digital and analog ends sound the same… 99+%. I have all Audio Research Reference… and of particular importance the Phono stage and DAC. My turntable cartridge is a Koetsu Rosewood signature… carefully chosen for its detailed but warm organic presentation. So, it is not by accident both sound the same versus equally satisfying but different. Both ends provide the detailed but natural / musical presentation I want.

What few realize is that we...or at least most of us, actually program a recording for a certain order of listening.
