Sounds like sour grapes to me. "I'm done arguing about it, but analog sounded better" as if he has any evidence to back up his claim. Not all of us can tolerate music with an assload of white noise splattered all over it. I've yet to listen to a vinyl without the experience being ruined by analog hiss.
- criddell 8y agoMy daughter got an inexpensive record player (Audio Technica) and some records for Christmas and I was shocked by how great it sounds. I remember playing records 30 years ago and just accepting pops and hisses and skips. Plus I owned a lot of crappy records (anybody remember K-Tel?) Going to the record store with her has gotten me back into buying music as well. She shops the vinyl section and I buy CDs. I think CDs sound better and I like not having to flip the disc, but there's something very satisfying about handling a large grooved record where you can "see" the music and the accompanying booklet or sleeve with lyrics and artwork. Something I didn't expect is how cheap CDs are now. I've bought lots of stuff for $6-$8.
- dmitriid 8y agoI'd wager that modern vinyls and record players are significantly better than those produced in the 60-70s, so you get very decent sound. And the physicality of it surely can't be beat.
