Just to stir things up: how can a 100+ year old technology not be inferior to a constantly evolving one?
One possible reason would be that vinyl replay has been constantly evolving too.
Why do you listen to records?
Do you listen to records for the SQ, or do you just prefer to listen to music through this medium?
I find myself putting records on occasionally, ( I have a large collection) but I’m not sure if it’s because of their sound. I certainly have the availability of millions of songs or compositions to listen to by streaming, and the sound quality is just abut the same, and, of course, the variety is endless.
So why listen to records?

@newton_john maybe at a rate of 1:1000 compared to digital |
Perhaps you could pull out a couple of straws from your speaker port and give that tonearm and needle a good wacking, might fix it. You may even look like some new age new wave DJ of sorts (wacking..the new scratching), as you wack away.

it was the pressing. I used as i said after thinking it was the needle, my other Bach good pressings albums and few others for few years without problem... Many companies used bad pressing materials...
By the way take a drug to cure your obsession with my posts (it is one year of your stupidity "my friend" now) ...It seems shame is not a word in your dictionary... I recommend hot pepper on the place where the sun never shine...... It help for uneducated impolite harassing idiot... And a straw is a tube then can be used if we use some with different dimensions to modify a port hole which is a tube... Get it ?

@parkergetdean First off, I don’t know how you can put numbers on sound quality. Secondly in my experience, vinyl and digital have been leapfrogging each other for the past quarter of a century at least. Before that, I suppose you could argue digital had a lot of ground to make up from a poor start with CD. Even so, a lot of people preferred it from the word go. We have reached the point where there’s very little to choose between the best of them. It’s mainly down to taste, mastering, convenience, etc. This week I’ve been streaming new stuff. Last week it was playing records. If I had to, I could live with either.
