@macg19 Ron makes fine phono stages. I owned KC Vibe 2 and 20/20 Mk2 with LPS. Little Loco should be mucho good.
Does anyone have a digital system that is as involving as their analogue front end?
I have a good analogue front end. Not stratuspherically good but good enough for this comparison. VPI Prime Signature 21 turntable, Pass Labs XP-25 pono preamp, Pass Labs XP-30 preamp and Hovland Radia amp. It has a lovely, very involving sound. On the right recording, I just drop everythng and am drawn in to listen.
My streamer, on the other hand, is decent but not spectacular. It is better than my CD player, but it is not jaw-dropping like my analogue front-end. My question is this: does anyone have a high-end, tier-one streamer (dCS Bartok Apex, Lumin X2, or something like them) that can rival a good analogue system?

Going by the photo of your system (how did you post it, BTW?) you are a much more serious audiophile than I am. Your setup looks like it could be in a show. Mine is just integrated into a writing room that people often sit in who have no interest in my audio system. You also have room tuning stuff on the walls. So, you're kind of in a different league than I am. I'm sure my system would sound a lot better if it were set up like yours. But I'll just have to enjoy it the way it is. |
