If you play a digital file, but want an analogue sounds, it looks as though Rice Krispies might be the answer then? 
I don't know what schiity turntables and dirty/scratched up vinyl you guys are listening to, but my Thorens turntable with nice vinyl is very quiet and sounds spectacular.

Every time someone brings up vinyl you have a snotty comment. What's your story man? You on an anti-vinyl mission? If so, get a life man. Enjoy your digital files, and we'll enjoy our albums...

Just switched from DT990 600ohm to HD 650. First impression really positive!

Recently added a Cambridge 851C as a source to my system (851C->Burson HA160D->HD650), and it sounds really impressive. I just had an old Dell laptop connected to the Burson by USB previously, and it sounded pretty 'meh' (at least thinking of how it 'should' sound) but now it's all good.

Two things: I'm finally enjoying my HD Tracks Yes albums, and especially now am digging Yessongs. On my other cans these digital hi-Rez re masters seemed way too bright to the point of being harsh. I still think these particular remasters pale in comparison to the 2011 Jethro Tull remaster though.
Secondly, did anyone ever notice how much Bjork's singing and specifically her unique pronunciation seems inspired by Jon Anderson's vocals?

The hdtracks yes albums are not the Steven Wilson remixes, pretty sure they're the Japanese sacd masters. I agree they're a bit bright and lacking in bass. Great music though. Also agree that the Tull remixes are stellar
I know I'm opening myself up for another jab here lol, but my best sounding Yes stuff is on vinyl. If you don't have a turntable get the Steven Wilson remixes on blu-ray or DVD audio, they're really good too...

Jab you? Why would I ever jab you for sharing your experience? I might have a different one, but I'd never insult you. If everyone had the same experience, then there would only be one type of music or headphone!
Steven Wilson. Got it. I'll have to see how they stack against my HDTracks files. Thanks for the heads-up.

Wasn't talking about you lol. The Steven Wilson remixes are the best digital files of The Yes Album, Fragile and Close to the Edge I've heard. Easily better than the hdtracks files to my ears. Smoother highs, warmer, but still detailed mids, and better bottom end...
Hey, at least we both dig the 650's B-)
