BEST PHONO STAGE FOR UNDER OR OVER 1GRAN

Carl.I never complained about you.I stuck up for you.And Im not closed minded about digital.I just know digital SUCKS THE BIG ONE!!! How many times Carl have you been listening to vinyl and have said to your self "there is no way in hell digital can sound like this" Many times,right?? PLUS I LOVE collecting albums.I could write for hours of all the classic rock I pick up for almost nothing.I like the hands on analog demands also.I feel more involved and interested.Any body can run out and buy a C.D. player but it takes talent to set up a great analog front end.I KNOW we agree on this..... BYE

Thank you for your support, David. It goes without saying how much I like the sound of analog (vinyl), and the "hands on involvement", as you say. The point I was making was, when you get a CD player as good as mine, you don't listen to vinyl and think how much better it is than CD (I DID feel that strongly before I got the CD50, and that helped get me back into vinyl in the first place). You think, "Gee, I'm glad I have both, because at least CD can make me happy, provided I listen thru a world class player." The difference being that you don't need one of the five best analog front ends to enjoy the hell out of vinyl, and that's a good thing, because they cost much more than my CD50, or my turntable rig.......And why why why do you post post post 3 times??? Heh heh, I realize the connection with AG's server can get screwed up...
