Listening habits.

I never stopped listening to records, but I listen to many formats.  I listen mostly to vinyl records, shellac records, CDs, and streaming.  I also listen to celluloid records and wax records, but not as often as the other formats.  I have one turntable for vinyl, one for shellac, and I have some old record players that play celluloid and wax records.  I've thought about getting an Archeophone (google it) to play celluloid and wax records on my main system, but I have not purchased one.

Absolutely. I can tolerate a few pops and clicks on old records, if the music sounds great. 

My LPs were destroyed in a house flood in 1985.  I was ready for digital, having been fed up with noisy and warped records.  However I couldn’t afford a CD player and the full priced discs, so I was preparing to repurchase some LPs but they were disappearing from shops.  Ultimately scrapped together enough to buy a CDP and a few discs but mainly listened to the radio for about a decade.

The fall of CD’s? Did I miss something?  
I listen to CD’s nearly every day. Occasionally, I still buy one or a boxed set if it catches my eye. In fact I just bought a seven volume, 14 disc set of jazz music called The Blue Note Years. It’s fantastic. I have nearly 2,000. CD’s in fact I just bought a new CD transport less than a month ago. For the record, I do not have a vinyl setup. I do have a very nice streamer and use that daily too. 

I was listening to tt and r2r decks from the middle to late 60’s. I went thru many upgrades for both the tt and r2r up until 8 years ago when I sold everything analog (tt, r2r) and have never looked back. Sacd from the late 1990’s and early 2000’s sounded every bit as good as analog. When you can rip and/or stream DSD music, the battle was over IMO. Then with your better dacs can accept dsd256 and your streaming software able to upsample everything to dsd256, just adds to the sq.
