Preferred probably CD. Most used streaming (work and bed, can't sleep without music playing) although I possess music on all formats but #6

 

[Jasonovich]

I prefer to download my music, play it via SSD or network it on NAS

Simply love my Rega turntables and from time to time listen to CDs. And old Sansui FM tuner also on air occasionaly. Currently searching for a well maintained Akai 95 cassete player/recorder.🥰

Akai GX95? Just googled them. They look nice.

I'll listen to my vinyl more when I finally get round to fixing a shelf to my wall. My Rega is currently on a hi-fi stand and springy wooden floors and turntables don't play well together.

Another job I never seem to get round to completing. I have about half of my CD collection ripped to my NAS

CD. No contest for sound quality.

Format not important all depends on recording & Mastering

CD, but most background listening is streamed.

Prefer streaming but for the best quality CD.

Hi, yes shelf fixed to the wall is probably best solution for a turntable like Rega.

CD better quality than streaming until you start downloading DSD >64 and you'll immediately realise you're drinking lovely frothy latte and not flat coffee! 🙂

Sorry yes vote wise Streaming & CD are equal .

 

[RTHerringbone]

It depends 😇

I've answered streaming as that's usually the fastest option, but fast isn't necessarily best. I'd say our listening at home is 60% streaming and 40% vinyl.

CD then Vinyl with Streaming way behind and mostly when on the go or in the car. Interestingly, I buy myself CDs but people prefer to give me Vinyl as presents, which is fine.
