sabi nga sa TV comercial KUNG SAN KA MASAYA ;D ;D ;D SUPORTAHAN TA KA ......................ako happy sa digital kc wala ako analog e.......... >:D >:D pero mas maganda kung both meron kc di naman palagi maganda yong digital at analog vice versa ;D ;D
Pareho pala tayong mga salawahan! Ahahahahaha......... ;D ;D ;D
Attorney,
Ang vote ko eh both analog and digital. ;D
Cheers! ;)
isa pa rin salawahan hehehehehehe
ganda kasi pareho eh, di ko mapigil ang sarili ko! ;D
hehehe na aappreciate mo pa kac ;D
yung kay akyat pwede pang scratch! :o Yung akin hindi, yari yung cart ko niyan. :-X
pero tuwing hahawakan ko yun cart ni akyat eh nag-bubutil yun pawis nya, baka daw kasi di ko mapigil at mag scratch ako! hahahaha

both. ;)
you wont appreciate the beauty of one without either. ;D
....." the experience can be just as enjoyable if the rig is properly calibrated and the LP is clean and good quality"........
in short, fingerin mo lang yung remote at mag-eenjoy kana unlike with LPs, magkakanduduling ka pa umasinta just to play a single track.
eh paano kapag lasing ka at gusto mong makinig ng music - pampatulog o pampababa ng tama? >:D
but that would take much of one's precious time ;D >:D
kinda begs the question: instead of having a TT worth 15k + a CDP worth 15k, would it be better instead to upgrade the CDP to a higher-end model worth 30k?
a properly set up 15k TT beats the hell out of a 60k tube cdp O0
agree. ;D
If you have a collection of vinyl, go ahead love it and cherish it! Some of those music will never be printed again.Well said Andaleon, I't's not good to invest on a turntable if you don't have your own huge collection. I can't imagine to spend 10K ++ for a stylus and i will just use it to play a second hand or third...etc. vinyl? I remember what I've read on "Sterophile" magazine: " How do you make a $500 turntable sound like $5K...."Well spend 5K".
If you are starting a music collection, I suggest look into digital.
Digital is the present and the future!
"a properly set up 15k TT beats the hell out of a 60k tube cdp "
A 15K CDP beats the hell out of a 60K TT!
Let's forego the debate on which is more musical. Digital is more convenient and a lot more choices in software!!! AND ADD DVD CONCERTS TO THAT! And let us not even mention SACD and DVD-Audio.
Analog is not going anywhere anymore. As soon as these current crop of vinyl lovers die out (we all do), it will die out too. What's on the horizon for digital? One can only imagine.

(what's the use of collecting cds now that you can't play on a futuristic digital player?)
audioslave,
i am more intrigued if what would be the answer of the guys here if the question were: "can you give up your cd player in the name of TT?"
ako.........hindi ko kaya! will throw my TT but not my cd player.
gusto ko may cd player ako kahit na mas gusto ko tunog ng vinyl. ;D
kanya kanyang trip lang yan ;D. lahat naman tayo parang mga mental case pagdating sa audio e whether analog or digital O0
kanya kanyang trip lang yan ;D. lahat naman tayo parang mga mental case pagdating sa audio e whether analog or digital O0
di ba sir, ikaw yung nagbenta ng TT at sangkatutak na plaka kase mas prefer mo CDs mo. digital pala trip mo ;D ;D ;D
kanya kanyang trip lang yan ;D. lahat naman tayo parang mga mental case pagdating sa audio e whether analog or digital O0
lets look at it in a different perspective...some car afficionados prefer the latest automobiles over the old ones. Those hi tech engines and all the electronic gadgetry slapped on to make the journey from point A to point B more efficient. in contrast to that some car afficionados prefer old cars that are painstakingly restored. They love the classic lines and the sound that those glorious engines produce. two types of afficionados, two types of routes taken but the end result of both routes is still getting from point A to point B. Different choices yet still the same goal and destination.
i'm a balimbing on this issue.......
.......analog or digital? no way, as far as i'm concerned. it should be analog AND digital.
I would like to say it again:
If you are starting, it would be wiser to start an all digital system.
If you have inhereted or have in your possession a good analog collection, go ahead and invest in a good analog playback...
For me Digital is the way to go, analog is just a sort of collection & status symbol as an audiophile.
kung hindi na mapakali sa plaka, TT, at sa cart at needle, posible yan sinabi mo na status symbol.
eh paano kapag bumili na ng mga digital weight scale, laser guided alignment tool etc. ano na kaya ang tawag dun? eh di audiophile diba? ;D
honestly, maganda ang analog. sa mga may analog, wag nyo naman inaapi ang mga naka digital, maganda din naman digital eh. ;D ;D ;D
If you have the money to spend. Then by all means, go spend on the "meanest" rig money can get, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's just for status quo whenever you go analog. ;)
How much is decent digital front-end that can decode HDCD, XRCD or SACD? 16K to 30K, right?.. How much is a decent entry level TT. 5k to 14k. Now add another 8k for an entry level phonostage.
Software???.... How much is a mint impt lp? Php200 to Php350. How much is a local lp? 3 for Php 100, vg to nm pa condition. Now how much is an impt cd and a local cd? Yung orig ha! Hindi pi@at$d, ha. ;D "Do the math" and tell if its status quo or not. 8)
Am not telling that its better than the other format but it's a matter of one's choice on whether which way to go. Why am I more into analog? I love the sound and the thrill of finding those elusive titles, that I like to listen to, and were never pressed into cds. ;) Ticks and pops, sheeeeesh!!!!!!!..................... as long as you properly clean your lps and a correctly aligned stylus, you won't get these. ;D
Convenience, well for sure digital is the way to go, no doubt about it. Hands up ako dyan. That's why I never completely abandoned digital.
Soundwise, mas type ko analog, eh. Ano magagawa ng iba,diba? >:D ;D ;D But that does not mean, it's for status quo. Don't be afraid. Go ask each one who's into analog for their reasons. ;) :) ;D
Hmmmm.......... ::) Mas mura kasi pag align ng cart, pag palit ng cart o pag bili ng bagong lp kesa sa pagpalit ng cdp. ;D ;D ;D. If one buys those mega buck rigs and just displays it on his rack and still uses his cdp then that is what we should call status quo. Di mapakali sa lp, di mapakali sa cart at di mapakali sa TT. Each one has its own sonic characteristics just like amps, preamps, capacitors, circuits, etc...... A rega bias cart definitely sounds different from a shure m-447 cart. Now and if properly implementend on an amp or preamp circuit, does an amp or preamp with auricaps sound different from the ones with only raon parts?.... ;)
Tawag dun? ::) ::) Marami siyang pera (masipag at marunong lang siya sa buhay kaya maraming pera ;D ) But seriously, again that does not mean status quo, diba??....... One does not really have to spend so much when going into analog. It's just that you have to be wise in buying your equipment para hindi ma loko ng mga tao at mga brands. ;) . Parang amp at preamp lang yan, pwedeng DIY, pwedeng branded o pwede rin vintage. ;D ;D
May nang-aapi ba? Wala naman, ah. Nasa interpretasyon nalang ng reader yun kung inaapi siya ::) Ahahahahahaha!!!!!!!............... ;D ;D ;D ;D
just my opinion. ;D
I have both mediums and I favor digital because of its convenience. my analog front end sees action once in a while though. been searching far and wide for that affordable digital front end that sounds like an analog rig. I have heard digital front ends that sound like analog but alas...they cost an arm and a leg. If I do find that piece of gear that is well suited to my budget and needs then ill completely turn my back away from analog but until then im keeping my Technics TT :)
Most digital front-end that claims that it sounds like analog can buy one a second hand car. ;D But for all intents and purposes, it seems that old LPs are much cheaper to buy than a new CD disc. ;D
the day will come when their prices will be affordable. i hope so. ;D
Sir Kim, I don't think you will be satisfied by an entry level TT :D if your talking about entry level.......... You can buy Php 1.5 K CD player sa ......pier or 2nd hand (meron nga ba?) then copy XRCD, or any audiophile CD for Php150 only! diba?Same with cdps lang yan. Alot of people or members here have already upgraded their cdps from entry level to mid level cdps. 2k for cdps in pier, p-mount TT's also delve in the same price range. XRCD or Audiophile CD for Php 150 only!? Di pa rin eh, ang mahal. ;D ;D Audiophile grade na lps 2nd hand in mint condition(decca, columbia six eyes, capitol, Rainbow Rim Capitol, London, Living Stereo, etc......) The labels I mention are at par with those new 200 gram pressings and sometimes even far more superior. >:D >:D I can get it at 3 or even 4 for Php 100.00. Damn, I was even able haul a little over 190 imported lps a couple of months ago for what, Php 2.8k, say Php 14.75/each. Best thing is they were all in vg to near mint condition and ilan lang ang tinapon kong lps dun. >:D >:D ;D ;D Tuwang-tuwa nga yung owner ng thriftshop sa akin at pinakyaw ko raw yung paninda niya. ;D
If you have TT marami accessories! Cleaner etch...etch... a good vinyl sometimes cost more than new XRCD's & HDCD's hehehe.
Bottom line....... kung saan ka masaya!
senyor DOM paldo,
ikaw pa maloloko eh ang galing-galing mo sa audio, tindi pa ng mga research mo! ;D
totoo na masipag at marunong sa buhay yan si Kim, masipag at marunong mamili ng plaka, yun mga nabibilan hindi pa naamoy ng iba pinagpilian mo na! kaya siguro sobrang enjoy ang analog experience mo. ;D ;D ;D
ako masaya sa analog. but i also play cds kapag tinatamad ako mag-plaka. ;D ;D ;D
- and of course - aethetics (as in - payabang, paporma, pampaganda etc)
MABUHAY! ;D
i don't believe to people commenting which format and gear is good even if he doesn't have it and do serious listening.
I'd rather put it this way "One's lifestyle is dictated by his income". ;)
given this, that is part of this hobby that we must accept for those who have high-end gears. i don't believe to people commenting which format and gear is good even if he doesn't have it and do serious listening.
senyor paldo, dapat digital or analog, hindi lifestyle. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Eh status quo lang daw pag analog. Kaya give me "bragging rights"!..... Ahehehehehe ;D :oLifestyle is a product of Bose ;D
senyor paldo, dapat digital or analog, hindi lifestyle. ;D ;D ;D ;D
it's true that it's a part of our hobby, a part that we can't listen to... ;D
Kidding aside, if your not devoted to audio music (audiophile) you will never appreciate TT!Kidding aside, what you're saying is also applicable to digital. ;D ;D ;D

Lifestyle is a product of Bose ;D
Kidding aside, if your not devoted to audio music (audiophile) you will never appreciate TT!
And yet "serious listening" is again a very subjective matter to begin with . . . and it differs with those that use their ears and with those that use their SPL meters! ;D
Pero psycho-wise, iba talaga kapag maganda dating ng japorms! its like nagiging pogi (kahit ngetpa ka) ka sa mga chikas pag may magara kang tsikot! Kahit walang ibubuga, may dating pa rin! ;D
This is also the reason why, in a more level-headed personalities, selecting which is better is made in the light of what have been heard or tested so far (and it should be in the same environment).
Yeah, the cost of money in the bose lifestyle is basically geared to aesthetics genereally! :P
I'd rather put it this way "One's lifestyle is dictated by his income". ;)
i'm just curious with others commenting which format or gears is good even they don't have it! ;D
Ones lifestyle is dictated by his TT or CDP
Ones TT or CDP is dictated by his income
ones income is dictated by his lifestyle (as in govt officials)
parang pareho silang lahat ah! ;D
baka nabalitaan sa isang website ng kapatid ng kapitbahay ng pinsan nila na hindi maganda yung isang gear or format. daming ganyan bro ;D
live with the gear to know it well...you will know both its positives and negatives. 30 minute auditions does not apply IMHO.

Is this a forum for believing or justification, I tought this is just expressing somebodys opinion. Serious listening is very subjective, do we need to elaborate what is serious listening?
yes, we are expressing our opinion which is good. but our opinion will be supported of what gears do we have. how can you say that this format is better than this even if you don't have it. serious listening can only be done if you give more time in listening and not just attending any sessions and/or go to audio shop and audition the gears you want to listen.
E paano naman ang todong nag-aapreciate sa iPod at walkman, hindi ba sila devoted to audio music? ano ba laman ng iPod, wala pa ko non eh! ;DCorrect that's an audiophile aspires (as close as possible to reality).
I think what audiophile aspire is not devotion to music but devotion to the realistic (relative to ones concept of whats real ;D) reproduction of music
I'd rather put it this way "One's lifestyle is dictated by his income". ;)Now we are talking about how much you can afford bro! Don't take it seriously, we're just talking about our opinion about "which way to go, analog or digital" not what best you have. ???
. serious listening can only be done if you give more time in listening and not just attending any sessions and/or go to audio shop and audition the gears you want to listen.OK, thats your opinion. Attending sessions & shop audition is not serious listening. Anybody agree?
Don't take it seriously, we're just talking about our opinion about "which way to go, analog or digital" not what best you have. ???Nope, never took it seriously. ;D ;D
Now we are talking about how much you can afford bro!
For me Digital is the way to go, analog is just a sort of collection & status symbol as an audiophile.
OK, thats your opinion. Attending sessions & shop audition is not serious listening. Anybody agree?
Won't this alienate analog-only and digital-only users?
As for serious listening, what if one listens to "music" more rather than to the sound one's gear makes?If you're listening to the music and not the sound one's gear make, then it wouldn't be a problem, diba? As long as you enjoy the music, whether be it analog or digital, you wouldn't care what gear is producing such sound, diba.
Don't think so.
If you're listening to the music and not the sound one's gear make, then it wouldn't be a problem, diba? As long as you enjoy the music, whether be it analog or digital, you wouldn't care what gear is producing such sound, diba.
You should always consider equipment being used in the shop as well as room treatment. Pag session naman, masyado magulo, pero masaya. Kaya ako home audition ang ginagawa ko for a couple of days. ;D ;D ;D
Now going back to the topic. Analog or Digital, which way to go. Bottomline, it really depends on ones preference. Sound Quality of each format, depende pa rin kung ano preference mo. Now, if we are to claim that one costs more than the other, that is debatable. Going analog is not "Status Symbol", it's basically which format you prefer. Look, I previously own a flagship model CDP which I got for 35K ++, I trashed it for what? An entry level new production TT which I only bought for 15K plus bnew, 3.4k for a bnew decent cartridge. Why? Even if the cdp sounded so great the enrty level TT was able to produce a more livelier and engaging sound for me.Opps, you haven't mention good Phono Stage & other accessories to play it well ::)
Now which one is costs more? Is that status symbol? Again, do your math... ;) ;D ;D ;D
You should always consider equipment being used in the shop as well as room treatment. Pag session naman, masyado magulo, pero masaya. Kaya ako home audition ang ginagawa ko for a couple of days. ;D ;D ;DIt depends on how you evaluate the equipment in the shop, there are lshops that can offer space (acoustically treated room) and let you evaluate alone for a day.
Opps, you haven't mention good Phono Stage & other accessories to play it well ::)15k bnew entry level TT + 3.4K bnew cart + 8k phonostage = di pa rin talaga eh. ;D ;DWhich way to go? Analog or Digital?
OK, thats your opinion. Attending sessions & shop audition is not serious listening. Anybody agree?
...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...
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...
....there are lshops that can offer space (acoustically treated room) and let you evaluate alone for a day.
odyopayl, what would be the shops that you are referring to that actually permits one to audition gears for the whole day? this is good news for a lot of enthusiasts.Sent you PM
It depends on how you evaluate the equipment in the shop, there are lshops that can offer space (acoustically treated room) and let you evaluate alone for a day.
for the day? u mean 1 whole day? paano naman yung ibang customers?
DI kaya amp and speaker synergy ang culprit kung bakit maganda phono mo at ngetpa si XRCD/HDCD! just scratching my head on the comparison without the benefit of setup complements. Of course I recognise its only you.
pila balde :D :D :D
kim, ang saya-saya niyan!! :D :D :D eh dapat sa 7/11 na lang mag-audition para 24-hours :D :D :D
jojo,
when i said hobby, it has passion that i dedicated myself whatever it is! >:D let's just be true to ourselves, as synchro_01 posted "you gotta live with the gear to know it well."
how will you know if you don't have it and do serious listening.
uy buhay na naman itong thread na ito :) which way to go? eh di sa medium kung san available ang music/artists na gusto mo madinig: lp, cd, dvd, cassette...
why bother convincing anyone else which medium is better?
We Also Serve Audiophile Foods - matinding strategy ito, wala pa shops na nakaisip nito ah....
ano yan? pag nakakain ka ba ng audiophile food, tatalas ba pandinig mo and appreciate music? hehe
fafa vens musta ka na? miss na kita eh! >:D
yun cassette sa analog yun kasali diba? meron pa ako player nun at mga metal typeII tapes. ;D
heto Pre - nabibingi sa mga makina sa planta... :(
yup sa analog yan, sayang nga mga tapes ko - sa walkman lang (oo meron pa ako nun) napapakinggan.
seriously, ang sarap ng audio ano? dapat magpasalamat tayong lahat at meron tayo analog at digital! either or both, we should be thankful that it plays good music and sooths our senses...

never ending ito...shades of valve gears vs. s/s discussions >:D
Whoahey!!!!!............ :o ;D ;D ;D Tape deck, hinalukay ko kagabi. Still have my collection of cassette tapes. Very nostalgic....Ahehehehehehe........ ;D ;D ;D ;D Was also able to find my dad's reel tape player yun tag 4 hrs bawat reel. ;D ;D Pwede kaso baka sabihin may wina-wire tap ako. ;D
doc, OK to ha! :D ano naman kaya ang specialty? anything edible related to "hearing" tulad ng sisig, tengang daga?? :D :D peace po! :D :D
ahahaha! meron din ako nyan! Kaso nag molds na yun Memorex na tapes, yun BASF na lang ang malinis. Tamang tama yan sa surveilance kasi may recording speed na pwedeng 24 hours yun isang tape. hehehe... Kim hindi na yata para sa analog yan, tools of another trade na yata yan pre kaya meron ka nyan. ;D ;D ;D
audiophile cigarette break muna ako. Naks! ;D ;D ;D ;D
kimpao: hindi po dac with tube output and tube rectified yung bagong project >:D
Whoahey!!!!!............ :o ;D ;D ;D Was also able to find my dad's reel tape player yun tag 4 hrs bawat reel. ;D ;D
IMHO there are great recordings in cd/hdcd/xrcd and great recordings for LPs as well.
For me you can actually set-up an analog rig that is cheaper and more musically satisfying but more maintenance.
In contrast you can set-up a digital rig for convenience but for it to be musically satisfying you may have to spend more.
for me yes...is it superior to an analog front end ? I won't go that far. O0
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)...
yun cassette sa analog yun kasali diba? meron pa ako player nun at mga metal typeII tapes. ;D
Just a Technics?
Are you trying to imply that Technics is an inferior TT?
Magagalit ang mga UTOT and TAE nyan. ;D
Metal is Type IV.
chief, analog pa rin ang classification niyan. i've seen somewhere from the other site (don't know which particular thread) that these reel tape recordings are the closest to the real thing. But come to think of it ::) directly diyan siya nire-record diba, siya yung master recording before transferring to other media. >:D
Pre baka naman 8 mm na film reel ang sinasabi mo. yung kailangan magsabit kapa ng kumot as screen tapos manonood ka ng mga sinaunang tooooooooot.............. Censord...... Ahehhehee ;D
senyor, pang audio yun reel eh, hindi pang video. ;D pero nakapanood pa ako nun ha, kaso lang walang sound. ::)
kailangan muna marepair ito deck, ayaw kumagat nun capstan. >:(
Hi,
Been reading this thread and trying to understand the arguments on which way to go, Analog or Digital? I'm a music fan and I don't care much if the music is cut in vinyl or pressed in CD. What matters is that I appreciate the music I listen to, IMHO.
On the question of which way to go, Analog or Digital: Here’s a question: are we the ones to decide which way to go or the recording companies? Sure, there are quite a number of turntables (exotic and entry level) that are coming out, but is there enough software to complement the growing need? Will commercial record companies bring back their cutting machines and produce LPs along with CDs, knowing that recording companies earn more because the cost of production for CDs is cheaper than LPs? If the argument is that LPs are cheaper to produce, then why do these record companies continue to produce CDs, and are in fact, improving the medium (SACD, XRCD, XRCD2, HDCD, etc)? Also, why is the production of LPs limited to Audiophile classics and not commercial recordings? It’s all ‘bout profit taking, I guess.
Digital is still in and may still be the future, and it’s not because of the music.
Just my opinion.
Cheers.

Let's take the picture as a clear example and let's say it is connected with a receiver
5.1. CH output there is analog right. So it means that the signals are passed to the dvd player and straight to the speaker right? It essentially uses the DAC of the player. This is true for CD players (stereo sound) as well right?
Digital Out means that the signals are processed by the DAC of the receiver.
Clarifications are appreciated
Digital is hard to beat if the quest is for a "clean" sound. However, to capture that old feeling, or that particular sound/time when the material was recorded, analog is it.
