for me i have both analog and digital, but just like jetok, kim and the others, i find myself spending more time with analog vs. my digital rig...the "involvement" with analog is much much different as compared to digital...while i know that we are in the "digital age", for me LPs (especially mint ones) still sound much more superior than CDs, even if the CD is HDCD or even XRCD...the "warmth" is more felt in analog than digital...but this is me...
i've had a tube CDP before with the notion that i can "capture" the sound of analog with a good CDP, de tubo pa at that...but still the sound of analog would haunt me (i just had a technics back then)...
yes, this hobby is very subjective...even my closest audio friends, di kami mag-agree kung maganda or di maganda ang isang set-up because it's really subjective...a good friend of mine really loves analog but is too lazy to flip LPs that's why he sticks it out to digital...ako naman i find the thrill in the "preparation" stage before playing my favorite LPs, i.e. using the carbon fibre brush for the LP, using the stylus cleaner, etc....
and again, i agree with kim, simple math will reveal that analog is cheaper as a very good/mint LP would cost around P200-P400 imported, for local it ranges from P30-P150...what a thrill to also "hunt' for hard-to-find LPs just like Bong Penera's Samba Song, LPs of Juan Dela Cruz Band, Mike Francis, Julia Fordham, etc...
for me, it is still analog...but i'll keep my analog rig for those "lazy" days...thanks!
