    Probably absolutely right; I haven't looked at flac yet.
    In any case, definitely not mp3. The format sounds bad, doesn't matter how high or low the compression rate is.

    I have SoundLab turntables and a Behringer Mixer (which I swapped for my Gemini one). Vinyl all the way!

    How cool to stumble on this thread!

    I have a nearly one year old VPI Classic turntable with a soon-needing to be replaced Linn Adikt MM cartridge. The rest of my stereo is all classic Linn black box stuff (kolektor, lk140 in aktive) and a wonderful pair of keilidh speakers. plus various bits and pieces to hook up the computer with its flac files. plus a set of AKG 701s when I need to listen by myself.

    Being umm 50 something I was there for vinyl in the 70s, moved to CDs in the 80s, moved back to vinyl in 2007. I buy music in FLAC format for downloads, mostly from Linn, but, living in Canada, I don't have access to HDTracks which is a great source of FLACs for you Yanks.

    No high-res dowloads or SACD or anything like that yet. My high-res source is vinyl
    C'est ma façon de parler.
