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.

I have recently subscribed to quobuz. I find myself finding albums I want to listen to and add them to my favorites. When I go to listen to them, I jump from one album to the next. I can’t remember when I’ve listened to an entire album on quobuz. I never thought this would be that way. Crazy. 

I have PVC LP Records that sound better than cd's.  No Snap Crackle or Pop! Most of mine,  Currently giving all my Records a heavy Ultrasonic cleaning.  I've gone through 243 of them so far.  Gust got about 100 to go.  Sadly or not so sadly my old Polk Audio PSW110 Subwoofer died, have a new Outlaw Audio Powered Sub coming.  I'll take a well cleaned LP Analog record over a cd any day of the week!!! When the wife and I are enjoying some drinks I just have to be extra careful changing records. Funny i'm old enough to remember when cd's first came out!  I jumped on that band wagon, have gone full circle, Back to Analog.

Analog is more emotionally engaging, since it's not music chopped into bits and reconstituted with jitter, ringing, etc.  Your brain doesn't have to sort it out.  Digital has gotten much better, but unless these issues are resolved on mega buck equipment, there's still a difference. I listen to both, but when you put on an lp, you sit and listen, and when you put on a cd you do other things.
