RE: Vinyl Vs. Digital

I recently invested in a better digital chain, and I am satisfied with my new Teac NT-505. Analog - direct LP playback - is still king to my ears (with a good analog playback chain). DSD digital comes quite close but can't beat direct analog. I can compare exactly, the direct sound vs the DSD recording on the Tascam. The NT-505 is a big step up from my former digital solution (Logitech Touch as streamer, Tascam DA-3000 as Dac), although there is still a way to go, for digital. I disagree with people saying that this type of recording is so good (technically) that humans cannot hear the difference. I do. But I agree that digital has become much better, over the years. The Teac also supports MQA, besides DSD, and this makes streaming (Tidal masters) better than I have heard it before, in our home.
