Seeking advice about vinyl vs CD.


Hope everyone is well and enjoying the music.

I'm trying to decide: should I get rid of (sell, give away) my Classical LPs and listen to Classical CDs/stream (not vinyl )? 

The issue: although I like Classical music, I listen to other music most of the time. I'm not familiar with it. Classical 10%. Jazz, Rock, etc 90%.  Mostly vinyl.

I have about 300 Classical LPs. The hoarding side of me say's to keep it!

The practical side says, listen to CDs and stream when the urge hits. This makes needed space for other things.

Advice is appreciated.

Self ask, self answer, but I will try and help the thought process.

If I heard you right, you are keeping your vinyl channel for non-classical listening.

Apparently, you also already own classical CDs, though don't listen to those much either?

Is there a possibility you expect to live to where yiu again want to hear more classical? Favorite classical?

When my mom passed, she had hundreds RCA Red Label Symphonies.  Most were surprisingly in good shape. There were maybe 50 box sets also in almost mint shape.  And I couldn’t get rid of them.  Having said that, they really do sound better than the best I could find on Qobuz.

All the best.

If you’re not in a hurry, abstain from vinyl for an extended period, listen to a few vinyl, then decide. This will likely make the decision clearer.

Yeah i sold 1100 lps back in 2014 for like $1400.I had gotten some money and like a jerk I know have like 1500 lps...and want to sell them again....but the ones I sold were bought in the 60,70,80s for really no much a,lp..now I have alot of expensive stuff.....should of stuck to cds .I have thousands of these.

Vinyl is healthier.  I have to get off my fat ass and stand up and flip the vinyl.  You want to be healthy don't you?
