—we audiofiles like our vinyl. I have of course the standard dedicated drive for my FLAX and MP3 files, but you can’t beat LPs for analog heaven.—

Playing a record is not just listening to music. It is an experience. :-)

BTW, I just discovered that if you search vinyl along with record, etc. you can find a ton of mini “documentaries” on vinyl and record stores on Youtube.

agreed.. and there has been a lot of advances in needle cartridges in the past 15 years. Grado makes an amazing cartridge for around $200 ... Used turntables are cheap and affordable..

but then I guess we are using up more “space” of the original poster’s living area...

as for me, it’s a worthwhile tradeoff.. but I still listen to classical and jazz in the dark, so what the heck do I know.

used LP stores are still out there, at least in the major cities. You can buy classical music for 2 bucks an LP and they are normally in great shape due to the previous owner.
