So many threads about turntables, kind of felt left out, I don't have one of those rotating biscuit tins and I so want to get into the Groove and here's my Spin
I know, I know, it's not all about me but I thought I share my thoughts.
It's no secret I love my DACs, kind of embrace streaming but too tight to pay subscription. I prefer the adhoc nature of downloading my music. Some people like all the fluff that comes with vinyl. Turntable ownership is almost ritualistic and has all these personal qualities, oh joys of analogue. Some biscuit tins are structurally amazing and the digital alternative is superficial by comparison.
I've seen a few reviews on YouTube in respect of the LiAV Harmony DAC and it's pretty amazing. The whole design integrity, the minimalism and the simplicity is truly beautiful and it's the only DAC I've seen to date, that is dressed up like analogue, it has a unique personalised signature with the curves of Porsche 911. It costs £2700 and I want one but I have two cats and a wife to support.
I think vinyl will be with us a while longer but it's nice to see the evolution of DACs that have taken a leaf out of vinyl, particularly LiAV Harmony; that are morphing into something else, other than plain featureless boxes with buttons.
