There is no convincing to be done though, as vinyl is not magical, but for me personally, I love spinning on it so much more than CDJs, its mainly because I'm a hands on guy, I like to work with my hands alot, and with CDJs, its all buttons and a small platter, but this is all personal preference. |

That is a matter of opinion.

actually it is scientifically proven that vinyl records can achieve numerous tones that are out of range for compressed files (such as mp3's), specifically the bass...
but i don't want this to turn into another vinyl vs. cd's debate :p
even if this guy sells his records, he won't get much money for them so he should just get a job like the rest of us |

I can't help but cringe a little every time I order a new vinyl. I know it's a format that's on the way out. But nothing relieves stress quite like dropping a sexy stylus onto a fresh vinyl! :D I keep telling myself, "No more records. You're saving for CDJs." But then I start mixing, and it all goes to hell. |
I still buy vinyl and I'm pretty much 100% CDs now... there are still loads of wicked tunes coming out on vinyl that aren't coming out on CD or mp3.
On the main topic, sell something else. Nothing worse than selling a tune then wishing you still had it further down the line and not being able to get hold of a copy - it's happened to me...
I know people who have sold their decks and kept their tunes in times of financial crisis - decks are replaceable, a lot of the time vinyl isn't. |

Well since you mention it I said opinion. The reason i said opinion was because proven or otherwise, there seems to be a divide, highlighted by the fact that you prefer one and I prefer the other.
So I may retort: it's proven that it's a matter of opinion.
And they key is that different peoples ears are sensitive to different frequencies, the younger tend to hear more frequency at the higher end of the scale, and the older tend to hear the frequencies at the lower end of the scale.
I bet my CD that I played 100000 times plays with a better sound quality than a vinyl that has had the same number of plays......
I still think the poster should sell his left testicle before he sells his vinyl though.

You must not be a scientist. So speaking as someone who will be a member of the American Chemical Society very soon I'd like you to know that any scientist would think you're full of . Digital solutions like say for instance an RME Hammerfall sound way better than any of your scratch clicky vinyl 1960s does.
I laugh a little bit everytime people like you get left behind in the wake of technology. |
