    If you can't tell he difference between vinyl or streaming then maybe it's time to retire your vinyl and just steam? Streaming can be free and give you almost every album you could wish for.

    I said sometimes, I've only had my streamer a few days! I asked was there a consensus opinion as may'be my vinyl set up isn't fully optimised, let alone my streaming set up. Been doing a lot of box swapping lately, and only just getting around to properly setting everything up. Anyway currently loving the streaming thing as like you said every LP at the your fingertips.

    You want a consensus on a hifi forum?

    Why would you get rid of anything if you are serious about music and your collection (unless you don't want to play records anymore), it's an addition not a replacement IMO.

    And what do you actually mean by 'streaming' as many people don't actually know what it means?

    Plenty of people are getting rid of equipment because of streaming, whether its on saved files, or live from streaming sites. Even those 'serious' about music and their collections, which can now be stored digitally, no need to hold onto physical objects anymore!

    That's possible of course, but are they hard core music fans or just people who consider music a hobby?

    I don't have a CD player and haven't had for years, but I still have all my CDs and records, just bought a turntable too. Still not quite sure what your point is though, but hey ho - I'm off to play some toons

    Many audiophiles are into streaming. It takes up a large percentage of many of their listening. I'm completely new to it. Was more asking a question than making a point. And that question is about consensus on hifi quality across all the major formats. I've had my streamer a few days and I'm listening to all sorts, I want the best I can get out of it.
