Digital audio vs vinyl

[Ali Tait]

Hi Marco,

The compromise in the system James is referring to is cost, pure and simple.

I've personally heard the DAC part of it, from a file based system, and it is streets ahead of anything else digital I have heard, including your Sony.
You really need to hear the Chord top of the line stuff, the advances made in the digital filtering (the software) are awesome. I only use that word when it is fitting.

I am even tempted to go down that route for my CD playback but the cost is not insubstantial.

Cheers,
Alan

From some of my reading, the new Mytek dacs are in the same ballpark for a lot less wonga Alan.
