RE: December Stereophile - Allnic D-5000 DHT

"But analog can never match digital for long-term reliability and there is no fundamental limit to how good digital can get."

Until your hard drive fails and your cheap plastic laminated over aluminum seedies oxidize. I have records from my high school days (forty years ago) that still play fine and sound great. Long-term reliability? Doesn't that concept assume compatibility? Redbook, SACD, PCM, bitstream, DSD, DXD, and there is no telling what the flavor of the five-year-period will be ten years from now, and during all that time past, present, and future, there are no issues with setting diamond to groove and converting physical motion to electrical signal in exact reverse fashion to my and your loudspeaker's conversion of electrical signal to physical motion.
