In researching audio equipment, I came across a description of an amp that said "when an incoming analog signal is detected, the receiver automatically shuts down the digital circuitry to prevent interference so you can enjoy clear and detailed sound."
My first thought was 'this seems cool, I can plug my turntable in and have a totally analog experience, I should look for this feature' but then I thought to myself that this could possibly be marketing mumbo-jumbo.
So I wanted to ask the question, what should you be looking for in an amp in terms of essential features, nice to have features, etc. and how do you separate marketing from actual things. Is 'bypassing digital circuitry' for turntable inputs a good thing to have?
