Part time lurker, almost never a poster here... I wondered where to ask
this, and I figure ROA and RAT is a good a place as any.
For me vinyl playback would fall into that category of things that cause
more stress than it relieves. All the work that goes into setting up the
rig, the expense, the time involved in cleaning each disk before
playback,
and the monstrous levels of noise and distortion inherent in the media.
If it works for you, go for it.
If you want to listen to material available on vinyl only or whose
transfer to digital is not that great, vinyl is the only game in town.
Agreed, but as an only source, I don't see it.
I get a lot of pleasure from listening to albums I get in estate
auctions, many of which are unplayed, and most of which are material
that I am reasonably sure no one on earth besides me is listening to at
that moment.
The only reason I have a turntable at all is to play albums I don't have
CD's for.
