Who has a decent quality vinyl based system that they would let me come to listen to?
The reason I ask is inspired by Dire Straits SQ thread where I commented (jokingly) that vinyl was the same as CD but with added rumble and hiss, this made me realise that, despite being old enough to have grown up with vinyl as the most popular medium, i have never heard a really good vinyl system. my last TT (that is still somewhere in my loft) was an old Garrard of some description and if I'm honest I didn't look after my records that well either.
As a result I am of the opinion that vinyl is far inferior to CD but would be interested to see if my mind could be changed.
