Why do you listen to records?

LP often have better mastering, less compression since they are targeted to audiophiles as opposed to CDs and streaming targeted to crappy car systems and cheap headphones. Also, where do you find the original, pre "Digitally remastered 2015" version?

I have never heard a digital setup which could compete with my analog rig. This also is the case with many rooms at the shows. Truly the only legitimate reason to put yourself through the rigors of records is the sound. Certainly, for me, nostalgia has nothing to do with it. 

I'd hate to think you frown/sulk a bit too much when you hear anything that goes against your vinyl belief system. Perhaps,  it makes you loose your people skills a lot, when that happens?

I'd hate to think you fall in the fanaticism category. It's good to hear if you didn't.

That's good to hear.

I'd hate to think you went round offending people.

One compelling reason for listening to vinyl records is that so much great music from the pre-digital era exists in that form and attempts to present it in digital formats have not been universally successful. This is not necessarily due to any inherent flaw in digital, but rather the way it has been done in terms of mastering or possibly a deterioration in the original tapes. We have also seen that many attempts to reissue such material on vinyl have also failed sound quality wise.

I don’t have a vinyl belief system and happily listen to both vinyl and digital formats.

As I said in an earlier post, they both have their strengths and weaknesses.

The fanaticism lies in jumping in to rubbish a format, whenever anyone attempts to discuss its benefits.
