to Alpha_gt I agree
I started collecting records in the mid 70's when that was all there was. bought some tapes for a while too. when CD's came out i also bought them. I've had both records and digital for years and never sold any of my vinyl so I've always had a record player. I don't get on either side of the fence I like both as I have collected both. resently i've started to stream and i'm loving that too. In a course of a listening night i'll losten to any combination of vinyl-CD-streaming (from Tidal). and i love it all. sure I hear a diference and have invested more money into vinyl playback but i really don't care as I enjoy the music as long as its engaging and gives emotion i'm there. I really don't feel the need to debate which is better enjoy both or one as long as you enjoy. Dont get me wrong i love the audiophile hobby and do love great sound but i don't listen to my gear as much as i listen to the music and how engaged i am (mind you vinyl tends to do that more for me).
