MissingCDs and records


Since I have had a long-standing hip problem (now being fixed,) I have physically been unable to play CDs and more significantly, records.  
I bought an outstanding streamer (Aurelac 200) to cope with my disability, and am very happy with the sound it’s producing .  However, I’m now finding that, despite the superlative sound of the Aurelac, I’m missing the experience of relishing individual discs and records which have their own character and speak to me. They’re like old friends you can’t replace with a stream.  Of course there are many advantages to streaming, including a universal discography to select from, but having that intimate contact with an artifact is a special feeling.

Not sure how such an innocuous thread as this has to have 4 posts removed. What are the Audiogon forums turning into? Are people that full of bitterness?

 

Back to the OP. I have all my seedees boxed up and in the closet. But I still enjoy spinning records. The sound is fantastic, but the visceral feeling of touching the record and the player adds to the enjoyment.
