Vinyl - Why Do You Buy It? - Blu-ray Forum

I moved over to vinyl for a few reasons, but the tipping point as Adele 25. I found the CD loud and harsh. Couldn’t enjoy the music.

Have been into SACD for a bit, trying to get the best sound, and even tried DVD-A, Blu-ray Audio, SHM-CD, HDCD, and LPCD. Vinyl has been the best.

Also, a friend of mine plays vinyl, and I really enjoyed the full sound at his place. It’s really about the warm, open feeling that won me over.

Well. for 2 years been running MoFi Studio Phono and ProJect Debut Carbon with OM10 into my Marantz SR6004 and B&W CM9 Series 2 towers. Collection so far: https://www.discogs.com/user/BD-Travis/collection

Only issue I have really had is buying new clean records. I find blues, jazz, and classical come in beautiful shape. Play with out a snap, crackle, or pop. Rock and pop can be covered in white (paper) dust and even had a vinyl shaving on one. I sweep new records with carbon brush and then a velvet brush. Annoying seeing the dandruff gathering around the platter.

Vinyl has been great. It fills the room with a fuller sound than CDs, or any other disc. Wish I would have started collecting sooner.
