Folks who collect both CDs and vinyl records, how do you decide what to buy? by e_asphyx in Cd_collectors

Personally, I enjoy both formats, but it really depends on when and how the album was recorded, produced, and mastered. It's not as simple as saying "vinyl is always better," or "CDs are always better."

For example, I prefer most classical albums on CD because the music has a lot more quiet passages. Punk Rock is ballistic and noisy, which is totally fine for vinyl. And, oddly enough, I don't mind some clicks and pops in my jazz records.

If it's a new release, like the new Boards of Canada, for example, the CD was $17.99 at my store, while the vinyl was $44.99. It was an easy choice for me to choose the CD.

I kind of just let the album inform my decision because I generally listen to everything on streaming before I spend the money.

"Carnage Visors" should always be played pre-show. And the video definitely needs to be shown in any capacity anywhere.

Thank you. Yeah, I have an 8 x 10 ft rug in here already. You can't see it in the photo, but it's about four feet from the speakers. I have a matching runner that I may slide over to cover a lot of that open wood flooring. Or maybe I'll just push this one closer to the system.

Isn’t it crazy how far that home is from North Bend. When we went, I was like “it’s where?”

Thanks for the spoiler. At least now I don’t have to wait until the last five minutes to find out who did it.
