I agree Dale, there is something about having the recording in your hands, loading it into your player, leafing through the cover art and other material while listening for the first time.

I think audio manufacturers are acknowledging the shift; DACs are beginning to including USB interfaces as a standard option.

Maybe that deilvery method won't totally die, but I am afraid it will.

I really think thaty covers, etc, are part of what keeping LPs alive.

Examples that do not work well with CD include

Stand Up Tull - Characters perforated and stand up
Grunt  JA- folding stash box
Styx water fall cover

And many others!

New speakers. I sold my Boston Acoustic A-200 and bought a pair of KEF C-40s from my dad. ;D ;D ;D They sound amazingly good with the Mitsubishi Amp, and my new JBL 136 sub.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thanks dad I really enjoy them.  ;D ;D ;D I might hook the KEFs and the sub up to the Lafayette Lr-100 or the Lafayette la-324a. Which one do you think would sound better with the KEFs? ??? ??? ???
