Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it

I'm standing here on the vinyl cliff,peering over the edge...I had a TT in the eighties & nineties, an AR with the Underground Sound mods by George Merrill from Memphis, TN. It got destroyed in a series of moves, and my vinyl disappeared. I have a perfectly good CD player(Denon 1650AR),EAD PM2000 amp & EAD Ovation plus prepro, & thiel 2.3's. I would need a phono preamp before I could run whatever TT I obsess over enough to buy, as the Ovation has no phono stage. Push me over, or save me! mb

Do it!!!!!!!!!

I don't have much vinyl but love what I have. Last night I listened to Moody Blues Long Distance Voyager (original master recording) on my Sota table, Jelco arm, Goldring cartridge, Cambridge phono pre and this simply crushed any of my cd players (modded Music Hall, Denon, Pioneer Elite...). The clarity, imaging & soundstage were unbeatable.
Yes, cleaning is a pain. You can't be lazy. However, when you are in the right mood it is amazing. You system will make it worthwhile.
