So, how do you guys prefer to listen to your records? I've recently been going for a headphone experience instead of using my stereo and I find that sometimes it just sounds better. Not really something I can put my finger on. How about any of you?

    I like the concept of physical media. Big artwork, something substantial to put your hands on when you are listening. I'm 33 next month and grew up on vinyl/tapes, and as a teen moved from both to CDs. I think about 4-5 years ago I started back with vinyl again because of the ridiculous "sound/volume wars" that are killing music today. Vinyl sounds warm to me. Good stereo equipment and speakers help out a lot if your looking for that analog sound of old.

    Long live physical media!! :D

    Headphones are cool, I just like my whole body to feel it. Home stereo for me.
