I have a record player that hooks up to a bluetooth speaker and it actually sounds really good.
I understand why vinyl records sound so good, but I'm curious how the sound stays that good once it's digitized and transmitted through bluetooth.
What's going on here?
The analog imperfections of the audio are still existent even when the signal is digitized and sent to a bluetooth speaker. I do advise you to use non-powered speakers in a setup like this:
Receiver in PHONO mode (pre-amp and amp), and non-powered speakers wired directly to the receiver. It's what I use and it sounds fantastic.
This setup is more "correct" because it maintains the analog signal all the way through, avoiding digital breaking of details.
based, this is what I do as well.
It's placebo. Imagine wasting money on vinyl only to have it played on Bluetooth thus undoing its benefits.
Zoomers are hopeless.
There are no advantages to vinyl over digital beyond the obvious superficial pleasures of putting on a record and having something hold and stare at, like a tactile autistic toy. Prove me wrong
here's the advantage:
>whoa it sounds better than the 128 kpbs mp3s I usually listen too!!!!!!!!!!!
You're basically right, but his point was that OP is ruining the nostalgic effect of the analog sound by playing it digitally.
VINYL > HDCD > 24 BIT ULTRA HD STREAMING > CD > 16 BIT HD STREAMING >>> NO MUSIC > MP3 >>> DOG SHIT SPOTIFY 128KBPS NPC NOISE
As someone who collects vinyl and CDs, this is objectively false and a huge cope.
God works is mysterious ways
You collect for consumerism not musical appreciation and have failed to refute anything.
Thats not how it works. Your hamonics are coming off the needle. Basically ops setup is working how a tape dub would. Or like encoded records traktor/serato etc. Digital signal to analog back to digital will still have analog hamonics.
Most those speakers you can use a 1/8th and set to aux. (Bluetooth quality kinda sucks in general)
Dumbass. Almost everything in my collection is used and I listen to it regularly. Vinyl has flaws: pops, clicks, skips, and distortion. Luckily most of my records sound good. CDs are on another level in terms of quality and sound way better than their vinyl counterpart. Try comparing the two sometime on the same receiver and speakers.
The loss of resolution in sound quality is irrelevant if the music was recorded digitally to begin with.
The vast majority of vinyls that come out these days are transfers of digital recordings, so there is no difference between formats.
TL;DR just listen to the fucking music you fucking autists
imagine buying new vinyl
I did yesterday :)
Im tired of all the retards that don’t know audio production. Albums that were produced in analog will send better on an analog format. Otherwise to get analog music on a digital format it needs to be compressed with the high ends and low ends suffering. Digitally produced music however doesn’t have this problem and there is no difference if played on an analog or digital system.
One example I like to use is REM’s murmur. They infamously botched the master tapes when digitaltizing it. The album is so full of life and bass but your only going to hear it on an original pressing on a turntable.
You do you.
Thats not true tho. Its the needle that warms it up. Anything digital passing a needle is going to have the analog hamonics. Same with tape heads. I run a digital stem pass through a tape reel and bring back into a .wav its going to be "warmed up".
