One of the great things about Vinyl


Is I find myself listening to recordings all the way through.

Rarely do that with CD's and/or streaming.

@ghdprentice You said it all.  With 28,500 LPs and now 11,000 CDs, I listen through to the entire CD (if the performance warrants).  I don't know which format I will listen to nightly (2 hours).  It all depends on the performance/music.  However, where I have both the LP and the CD, sonics dominate so it could be either format.

@unreceivedogma 100% agree.  Top-ranked equipment, well I have top rank sound with less than SOTA equipment but I have NO noise problem with the overwhelming majority of my 28,500 LPs.  His system is faulty.  A high end analog system minimizes surface noise and record defects to the extent that they are either unheard or nominally heard.  My Japanese vinyl DtoD discs are SILENT other than for the music.  Rumble, groove roar-I haven't heard rumble since I was 15 (52 years ago) listening to my Dual 1209 with a Stanton 661 or Grado Sig 1.  I have a Townshend seismic sink under a VPI TNT VI/SME IV modified, SDS speed unit = ZERO groove roar or rumble.
