I will NEVER miss records, scratches, pops, jumps, portability, etc. When CD's came out I never looked back. The ONLY thing better about LP's was the nice big artwork IMHO.
Nice setup. I have just recently gone back down this rabbit hole. I picked up a bunch of old stereo stuff a guy was giving away as he was cleaning out his garage. That haul had an old Kenwood system in original boxes from the 90's with a cabinet that was never set up. After listening to it...
