Have you listened to one of your recordings, yet? It will be interesting to know how the overall sound survives the analog part of the process.

The reason I make cd's of some of my vinyl is so I can play the music in the car. I can also share some of my music with friends. I will gladly make a cd for someone but I would be loathe to loan an album. Of course I do not know how to do it with a computer. I just use a stand alone Sony cd recorder in my stereo system. Once you have the levels set it is time to let the record play.

Yes, and the results are very impressive!

I will grant you that the discs that were recorded and played to this point were several Bob Dylan LP's that were in near mint condition so there was practically no hiss or pop to begin with. My son is very much into BD and has about half a dozen CD's. To both of us there was only a very slight difference in SQ between his CD's and similar burned vinyl tracks. I played them using my Toshiba DVD/MSB DAC combo so that might have helped as well.

It looks like there will be a lot of gripping and ripping at the house for some weeks to come. I have collected about 200 LP's at the local thrifts over the last 18 months that will all get converted eventually. The vinyl will still remain handy for listening as well but since I have 3 other set-ups w/o a TT this will give me more options for listening to music.
