I’ve been playing records since 1965. That was on my dad’s Garrard and HH Scott receiver and Wharfdale speakers. I enjoy records immensely!
i also have CDs. I also have streaming digital sources.
I dont spend a lot on vinyl, not on my (14) turntables, nor cartridges (82). I inherited 4,000 LPs from my folks. My mother worked as Quality Manager for Columbia Records pressing plant in California, 1955-1967. I’ve added just under 1,000 LPs myself. Mostly eBay and thrift stores.
All of the digital sources I have only serve as an expensive convenience, and to verify just how good all the vinyl sounds.
When i want REALLY GREAT listening, it’s from vinyl.
All this talk of spending $1,000s for a vinyl setup is absolute garbage. Not necessary.
And, if digital is so great, why the preoccupation with searching for the best DAC? Absolute garbage, too! Don’t you know?? Digital is perfect already!
