I'm always disappointed to hear the word 'better' used in the context of this hobby, all personal preferences should be respected (I have owned and enjoyed a wide variety of various analogue, digital, transistor and valve based systems since the mid 1970's).
'Different' is a less controversial word which reflects individual taste - I also happen to prefer spicy food to plain, music to sport, documentary to drama but that shouldn't imply my choices are superior to someone else's.
