Well im starting to feel the vinyl after being away for years. There is a certain realism or should I say "texture" I get when listening to vinyl that I don't get with digital. I still do enjoy digital... vinyl is more of discovery for me now. But I've noticed the texture of vinyl....I don't feel that with digital. I'm now trying to figure what cart would sound best in my system. PoppaC is sending me one for more discovery...but I believe it will take much research to get it all figured out. My limited research seems to indicate that Rega tables may be more "user friendly" and just a notch above Pro-Ject tables. VPI seems to be about on the same "user friendly" level as Rega....so in the distant future my plains seem to indicate one of the three tables....if I decide to continue down the vinyl path which seems promising now.
