I was talking to the owner of my local hifi shop yesterday. He was ranting about how he can't even listen to regular cds, and how the new hirez digital formats were passable but vinyl was still better. He said, "I've got a turntable (in stock) for $399 that'll sound better than a $10,000 cd player." Is he serious? I expect he was exaggerating to a degree... He was snobbish and intimidating, so I left without asking for a demonstration. If an affordable turntable is going to sound that much better than a high end digital player, should I drop my current plan to start a sacd collection and look to vinyl to satisfy my budget-minded audiophilia? I'd appreciate the comments of any vinyl junkies.
Thanks,
Dimitri
