In Reply to: I didn't say anything about digital being bad now did I? posted by artemus on April 18, 2007 at 19:38:22:
I have a VPI 16.5 record cleaner and gallons of RRL cleaning fluid.I have every brush you can imagine to clean albums. I have a zerostat gun to reduce static.
I have two MM phono stages, and a step up transformer for MC cartridges.
I've invested in hundreds of special sleeves for my vinyl and for covers to protect my cover. I have well over 1000 albums and a special IKEA bookcase to hold them all.
I have hundredes of audiophile quality vinyl albums. I love collecting vinyl and don't plan to quit soon. As much as I love it, I'll admit I love to hear a CD from time to time. Dam it's nice to hear someting so quiet.
