They were in the DFW area back in the 90's, but guess they closed down here after that.

Isn't Vinyl sound quality much worse than flac or mp3?

@tim_g only for those who hate music. All digital formats are crap compared to analog. There are digital formats that have greater frequency range, etc, but music must be specifically recorded by super high resolution equipment for that to make any difference. Music that was recorded on tape originally was made to sound perfect on analog formats. Digital does it no justice. But even modern music usually sounds better on vinyl.
Edit - I should specify compressed digital formats suck. 24 bit / 192kHz wave files are as good as digital can get right now. Still not as good as analog unless all the source recordings are 24/192.

I like music.
I have never noticed a difference between .mp3, wav, flac, analog, digital, whatever. It all sounds the same, and if it did sound different, I highly doubt it would be significant enough for me to care in the slightest lol.

Anyone see any value in a petition to the whitehouse to load up all the executives from Equifax and fire them out of a naval cannon into the sea?

Any record (vinyl) I've every listened too... it crackles and pops and sounds awful. Big difference there.

Love the way you think. I think we should just do away with SSN in general. Nothing new, just abolish the old.

Get new vinyl. Old, shitty pawn shop records are crap. They were worn out before you were a twinkle in your dad's balls. Also, there's a 99% chance your turntable is a steaming plie of shit. That makes a difference.
-
Get a better amp and speakers. If you can't hear the difference, either your ears are f@cked or your speakers are f@cked.
-
To even put mp3 in the same league as FLAC or uncompressed WAV audio is... well.... I'm not sure how to say that without sounding insulting. Mp3 only exists because it had widespread compatibility in the early days. It was shite then and it remains shite. FLAC is semi acceptable for a compressed format (sorta). Not being able to detect a difference..... well..... I'd kinda put that under "hates music". Or at least under "hates great sound" or maybe "can't tell the difference so mp3 is fine".
Mp3 is not fine, btw. Not even a little. Not even when your music player dealy only had megabytes of capacity. Treat yourself to a listen of your favorite album on a true high fidelity system. If you still can't hear the difference, then I'll sell you some 128k mp3s I made from cassettes.

Lol, that seems like a lot of wasted time and money for something I wont notice. I'll just stick to the .mp3s on my phone/computer and my cheap headphones/pc speakers! I can hear it, sounds good, and I can spend that time and money where it matters more!

@tim_g I guess it comes down to passion. And that last comment hurts my soul. I weep for your ears.
