Phil, That is one of the best descriptions I have seen to describe the difference betwen analog and digital. There is a rythmic rightness and punch to analog that digital has a very hard time reproducing. Digital , at it's best, still seems slightly less rythmically involving. Analog has it's own distortions of course and I don't mean to suggest superiority of analog in general. But, in terms of articulation and pulse, analog still has a slight edge to my ear. 99% of my listening is through Transporter, but those special vinyl times through my analog rig do something very special despite the other flaws of analog. -- tomjtx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomjtx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7449 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37044 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
