Here are a few reasons why I like vinyl and still use it sometimes: - The record player doesn't ask for a pass code - The record player doesn't tell me my fingerprint doesn't match - The record player doesn't want to do an update before playing - The record player doesn't need a WiFi connection...

Please read the original post carefully and you may realize it is not meant to be yet another vinyl vs digital thread. Nothing "vs" at all.

Thanks for your interesting comment. This was not really what I wanted to get into though... This responds more to what I was asking about... and maybe I could have found the answer in previous posts, but a brief search revealed mostly the typical talk about why digital is better than vinyl...

Note: I am not trying to compare the sound quality of vinyl to digital recordings. I am trying to shed some light onto the fact why some vinyls sound vastly different than their digital counterparts. Not necessarily better, nor worse. Just as if someone mastered them completely differently.

Hello music lovers, After reading the thread The Truth About Vinyl Records, it confirmed to me again that vinyl will just always sound different than any digital version. My understanding here is, that there is really a hell lot of tweaking being done when the master record is being cut, much...

I am a bit late to the party... but there is definitely something missing in the Linux section: LSP Plugins! I absolutely love what you can do with these. Currently I have setup a 2-way crossover, each channel with a parametric EQ. Output goes into two vintage Accuphase amps and then to two 18"...

I may not have tons of experience with different subwoofers, but one thing I know—open baffle subwoofers, properly equalized and amplified, sound freakin' amazing. No "boomy" box sound, just fat dry bass as if the instrument is right there with you. Works so much better in a room due to the...

Now you can get rid of your dumbbar, you've got some serious speakers to carry around :) Nice job, really good to see someone just going for it. That's what I did some time ago, despite people suggesting to go with a "proven design" first... who dares wins... and if you fail, well, you learn...

Sounds all good on paper to me... have you heard any servo subwoofers in person? Or how did you decide that this must be good? Personally, I am happy with my McCauley 6174 drivers in open baffle configuration. 18" moves a lot of air—whatever woofers I tried... it seemed like the larger they were...

One of the most praised active crossovers of the "golden era of HiFi" was the Sony TA-D88 and Sony TA-D900 (pretty much identical). These have exchangeable frequency modules, which makes them quite versatile. All filters are 24dB, which was unusual for the time. They look and feel quite sexy...

Thanks for reporting that. TerraBerry... made in Japan... doesn't surprise me too much that it is top notch :)

Well, we still don't know what the OP wants to do... maybe he should enlighten us ;) I am very much in favor of the Tascam DA-3000. Here is a review with a few measurements: http://everythingaudionetwork.blogspot.com/2014/04/home-recording-reviewbenchtest-tascam.html I am debating to buy this...

The Mytek Stereo 192 (there is also an older Stereo 96 model) frequently had positive reviews. Might be worth checking out. If you don't mind used, there are usually some available on eBay or reverb.com. I have heard a vinyl to digital recording made with the Mytek Stereo 192 that was quite...

Did you actually read that review? When they started to talk about some $325 coaxial digital RCA cables making huge differences... they lost my interest. Sorry, but had to throw that in. Nevertheless, there may be some more "scientific" reviews favoring the Behringer, I am not saying it isn't good.

Oh, and since you are talking about Tascam... also check out the DA-3000: https://tascam.com/int/product/da-3000/top It is a solid-state recorder (to SD or CF card), but can also be used as an AD or DAC if I understand correctly. Maybe, if you are after e.g. vinyl digitizing, that device will...
