I got rid of over 3000 vinyl albums and over 1000 singles and I can honestly say - WHY THE TURNROUND?

and don't give me BS it sounds better.

Its does lol ..... just bitter you git rid off stuff that cost you thousands

Keep kidding yourself.
I understand nostalgia but I grew out of it, why would I want to walk over to a record rack, lift out an album, stick it on a deck and then keep getting up when I want to skip a bad track? - I went through that in the 60s to late 90s.
FLAC files > DAC > Triple driver in ear headphones smash vinyl.

If it was good enough for David Bowie it's good enough for me

I listen to a lot more music on vinyl than I ever did digital though, it essentially forces you to listen to at least a full side. Digital I would constantly just skip round and pretty much never listen to a full album.

Phil Collins actually mentions Album music order in his remasters. How nearly all the best songs got put at the beginning in the days of vinyl. Cd make that redundant. And for anyone that says vinyl sounds crap compares to other formats you need your head read. Loving the sound on my rega rp6 . Tbh cheap players of vinyl don't do it justice.

I do think vinyl works best the higher up your budget is. A cheap ( in hifi terms ) cd v turntable at sub £600 will probably be better in sounds terms for cd . And while TT in tge sub £200 are ok , I think to get the most out of them you need to be spending a lot more . My rega p3 with cartridge was £450 ..... and that was 13 years ago . My new rp6 was £1100 . Love it to bits
