CD's or Vinyl?


Gun to your head, if you could only pick one, which would you choose.  As nostalgic and sublime as Vinyl can be I think I'd have to go with Cd's.  Just seems cleaner and more pristine to me.

And You?

I got your back.

That would be Bob, from Saugerties, New York. Last I heard, he was hiding out in a cabin high up in the Catskills. No internet up there and his phone is a beeper.

Selective is right! Buying vinyl or CD without knowing the audiophile quality of the recording is a true hazard to the hobby. 

Is there a reliable website that you use for such information?

Hello goodlistening64,

Glad to help.  Here are my go to sources;

I also go directly to the record companies that select/sign the artists

Enjoy the music.

 

 

@laoman  When you say Vinyl sounds more like live music, you must be equating all the pops and clicks on vinyl to the coughing and hacking you can't avoid hearing at a live show?  On that basis. I must agree, Vinyl does sound more like live music. 🤣
