Vinyl or wait for the new stuff??


I was wondering whether to dive into the world of Vinyl or wait for the new format to settle. You see, I have not listened to vinyl for more than 20 years now. I have all rated A equipment and cables and good collection of Audiophile and not so Audiophile CD. Recently I have been thinking of taking a dive into the world of Vinyl. However, knowing myself, I will not be satisfied unless I get some highend stuff which will cost me some serious amount of money. Not to mention that I have to start my collection of software. So my question here for you guys who want to help. Shall I make the move or just wait for the SACD/DVDA ? your input would be much appreciated.

I've read a lot of good responces and thought I'd add mine. I do have CD's....but I use them in the car only. When I listen to music at home, its vinly all the way baby!
There is a warmth that digital just does not "reproduce" well to my ears. Not to mention the vast aray of historic recordings that will never make it onto a newer format. I'm 47 years old and theres something about playing a record that was pressed when I was a child...or my father was a child...and I'm the first in many years to hear music come from that disk....Its like opening a time capsule every time I listen. I don't think anyone could say that about a CD. I for one would HIGHLY recomend going vinly....skys the limit as to what you will find and hear.
