I prefer vinyl to any digital format, even SACD ro DVD audio both of which I listened in the US with expensive equipment.

There is "NO Way" the CD's produce the same warmth & fidelity as vinyl. "Unfortunately", my newly purchased amplification/ stereo system has made audio an afterthought focusing on the home theater element. My 25+-year-old $500 system "Sonically" outperforms my new $4,000.00 system hands down! :(

My kids (oldest is 15) think that vinyl records are really cool. Who would have thought it?

i never bye CD's

It's ALL I listen to.

I switched to CD about 17 years ago and never spun a record since. At the time, on my modest system I distinctly remember Simon & Garfunkel's PSRT CD to sound absolutely magical. I don't want to go into the Vinyl vs CD debate, because I can't judge it. I can also testify to my initial observations back then. Back then I was not as critical a listener as I am now, but the memory of that first CD is still vivid.

Do people go more than a day or two without vinyl? Perhaps we should start a support group for the poor souls.

Vinyl forever!

only vinyl can deliver the emotion in the artist and in the music

I still love the sound and feel of vinyl. A more relaxed listen on my Linn than CD, but I feel that CD players and discs have gotten great in the last few years, and that fact is being overlooked by the excessive coverage given the potential new formats of SACD and DVDA. Try to get the good word out that CD players are still very viable. As for records, just getting people to give theirs another listen is all that is needed!

Melt it down and take it directly into the jugular for best results.

Burning Dad's 78's to CD.

Vinyl still sounds natural and musical.

Aja on a Kenwood KD-650 with Denon DL-103. Works for me.

I try to listen every day, but sometimes time doesn't allow. I find myself playing and buying more LPs than CDs as the years go by. Long live vinyl!

Still better, but a hassle.

And at least once a day, every day I can!

And everytime I can.

Eight years ago.

Vinyl is my principal and preferred audio vehicle.

I purchased an entry-level vinyl set-up late last year —Rega Planar 2 with Goldring 1042—and have been enjoying it a lot. Most of my music is on CD, so I don't play records all that often, but I do try to listen to my vinyl rig at least a couple of hours once or twice a week. My biggest gripe with vinyl is the tweasky nature of it—since I have no idea what VTA and azimuth are or how to check and adjust them—I constantly worry about it. Argh.

When I was three years old, I was listening the singles that my parents own. After growing up and developing my own music and audio system pleasure, I have seen that the types of music I listen to are not so appropriate for vinyl (all types of heavy metal, new age, rock, pop; in other words metallic audio tunes which mostly occupy electro guitar sounds in them). At the age of 38, situation is still the same. I can still find some new CDs to throw in money (very very rarely nowadays). Vinyl is not my friend at all. That has a danger of carrying me to the limits of obsession. I don't want to clean vinyls regularly, count the number of listens for each record, tune cartridges, carry bags of vinyls while in travel, change tubes & cables and check kitchen natural gas valve 10 times a day. Washing the dirty CDs under tap water is way easier, safer, better for body and mental health. Digital formats recorded to a hard disk are even better.

I listen to LPs every day but I also download and have an iPod. For me real music is found in analog LPs, cassette,s and reel to reels. Well made SACDs and DVD-Audios can come close. I just love music.

I love the sound of LPs but I live in Winnipeg, Canada and there is, sadly, a sortage of places to buy LPs, or obtain good used LPs. Maybe I should move to Toronto.

Decided to fettle my (modest) deck using the "Guru" protractor and, my, does it sound good. I've been reliving the songs of my youth.

While I admit to listening to SACDs more than vinyl, when I really want the best it is vinyl all the way.

My worn needle needs replacement but vinyl is king.

Usually listen 2-4 times a week. My arm is at SME for exchange of internal wire. I love listening to vinyl, partly because I was brought up with it and nostalgia. Also equipment improves all the time, seems like no end but also no end of price. Had a Well Tempered Classic changed to TW Acustic Raven One. Clear difference in background noise, rhythmn, and decay of timbre. Mind you WTT is not a bad table.

I have a great turntable set-up, I happily listen to vinyl anCD.cd

New turntables and cartridges are better than ever. Old records can be astounding.
