I saw your member icon, and couldn't help but think i recognized you as my uncle. I am Steve Brown in Wisconsin. Please forgive if you are not who i thought.
Yeah...I can definitely tell the difference. LPs are so much more "airy" for lack of a better word. and yes....I do dabble/buy/sell. So many choices and life is so short. I try anything that tickles my fancy...If it doesn't it goes out the door....
If you are tube amp King, does that mean you dabble, collect, sell. Or all of the above? I saw your post about your new turntable... A really clean record and a really good cartridge and your friends won't be able to tell if it's a record or cd!
