Question for the older folks- did you ditch vinyl when cd arrived?


I kept all my LPs and most anytime I was in lower Manhattan I’d go into J&R music and often picked up an LP but for years my predominant purchase format was cd

Nope. I kept buying vinyl, some CDs as well. My preferred format is vinyl. No streaming at all.

Vinyl has always been my format of choice as far back as I can remember. I didn't purchase my first CD player until well into the 90s which was an NAD 502 which wasn't very pleasant to listen to and broke down all the time. I eventually purchased a Sony XA20ES and began to realize what a wonderful alternative CD could be but that never diminished my love of vinyl or FM which is my format of choice when I'm not listening to a physical format.

No . When CD’s first came out I purchased a few & a decent player. I was so disappointed in the sound, I waited a few years before I tried the format again.

I sure did. Got rid of so many I wish I hadn't, but still have a good many vintage LP's from the 70's.
