And the Onix DIDN"T give you goosebumps??
Of course it did silly goose, I was talking about a digital recording of a analog source.
Since I have a lot of Jazz, which is pretty old, most of the CD versions come from analog masters. I never thought that the best CD's were digital front to back but maybe they are.
I definitely like the sound from vinyl, but I also like a well balanced system that can make CD work well, and generally speaking I have found tube playback very complimentary to digital recordings.
I think it takes a lot of care and sensitivity to make good recordings, and I do enjoy recordings of high quality. However, I'm inclined to believe that the musical performances themselves are more important and not it's not worth loosing them forever.
