Im not afraid to admit that I like Vinyl, neither am I embarrassed by the fact that I use an LP12 to do so. I came here having been exiled by a previous forum for frequently defending those facts.
Out of curiosity, I visited that old forum to day only to discovered the same prejudice is there.
Muppet land is still pursuing the same 40 year old theme  :p sad.
I like to listen to music, I enjoy it many ways but do prefer vinyl given the choice (hard to do these days due to my hands)
Thank god I found here.
Sensibility returned and judgment disappeared B)

    I really couldn't care what people listen on. I'm interested in what they listen on, but as for caring...

    Old battles. Long since best forgotten.

    It's best just to be happy with the music you choose, played back on the equipment you chose.
    Never mind what others think/say.

    Why do people get so wound up about hi-fi?

    And I was going to use razor-sharp CDs as ninja frisbees.

    I also like a bit of Vinyl. I used to have a LP12 but now have a Townshend Rock

    Any good, was it worth the replacement, what made you change?
  • SimplemindSimplemind
    PS. I only ask this because Im interested, not a linn fanatic. Had mine since 1984 and just couldn't be bothered to change since then.

    I'm 100% streamed digital, but if I did have a turntable, I'd like a Rock.
  • SimplemindSimplemind
    pray tell me why ;)
  • uglymusicuglymusic
    Why I would like a Rock?

    Or why would I be 100% digital streaming?

    The Rock, in its first 3 guises as heard by me, was very good indeed. To my ears it was a perfect mix of what a LP12 did best and what a Xerxes did best.
    Well engineered, did what a Michell should have done, just not as flipping gorgeous looking as a Gyrodek.

    The lesser known Townshend Avalon was a scaled down version and was absolutely fabulous, competed against EB101 etc. It was short lived and discontinued, I believe, due to high production costs, much like the Michell Mycro.

    Thank you. You seem to have much more experience with high end decks than I. Im glad you enjoy it, long live vinyl B)
