I do the same thing! I have 3 TTs all at different levels and a very good CDP. I get hooked on one of them and listen for weeks. Then for whatever reason I will switch and repeat.
Binge sessions
I've realized that I binge listen, not to music (yeah I do that too) but to components. Like I'll spend several days even weeks just listening to vinyl, then several days and weeks listening to reel to reel, and yes days and weeks listening to compact cassettes and to a lesser extent I do the same with cassettes. I have friends that listen to multiple formats during an evening of tunes, and I've done that but for the most part I "binge" on one of the four mentioned formats.
I never noticed, my wife pointed it out. I'm currently on my rare cassette binge, rediscovering how good tapes I made in the seventies still sound (honestly even the not so good ones have been enjoyable) and having fun doing it.
The Mrs., also pointed out that I go through extended periods of borrowing records and recording. During the winter months I like taking the spare half track out and recording small jazz and folk venues. I appareantly binge on this too when the mood strikes.
Anyone else do this?
