Is anyone still using a CD Player

What do you do if you want to listen to something that is available on CD, but not available on any streaming source?  Do you have the streaming services decide on your universe of possible music?

Yes! CD and SACD only here. You have a great Player in the Krell 505.

Keep spinning!

Happy Listening!

Ripped CD sounds better than streaming. In my home with Naim Uniti core, which sends data via LAN to Streamer Lumin U1 Mini. Network Isolators, good Netswitches included. 🈵

Old habits are hard to break, so I keep on spinning discs.

Yes, the deluxe box set cost to get the one Blu-ray Disc can be frustrating, but to my ears nothing else comes close.

LP’s had to compress drums to avoid the stylus being thrown from the record grooves (correct?), and the Blu-rays don’t, apparently. 
All I know is my oppo cdp205, Modwright edition, keeps me happy.

An inexpensive audioengine streamer confirms to me if I want to support the musician, and then I buy the disc.

Ultimately for me it’s about the music.

Well, I have DCS, Arcam, and JVC players. I can’t imagine ever selling the DCS.

Music is music to me, although vinyl (and tubes) have qualities I don’t yet hear on CDs or streaming (not my own; I don't have a streaming service). But, for all that, music is still music and that is my Love.
