@kalali - I enjoy spinning vinyl, and if I could, I would play the LP rather than the digitized version. But that's not always easy to do. I have to find the LP (harder than it sounds in my house), clean it, and flip it over in the middle. Sometimes, I just want to play my music with the press of a button or two, or in a room other than where the big rig is. Since I started digitizing my vinyl and cassettes (insert laughter here), I have spent much more time listening to my collection of music than pondering what I want or do not want to hear. I started ripping my collection to a server in 2011 (finished all the CDs, now working on the vinyl). The convenience of a music server is so conducive to focused music listening that I usually end up doing that. My rips are not perfect, or even as good as the vinyl, but they are not too bad, either.
As for the "shelf version" of the LP on CD, I have two issues. One is that I swore back in 1984 that I would never give the record companies the satisfaction of selling me my entire record collection a second time. I am that cheap. So I went and bought a Thorens TD-166MkII in 1984, a big ticket item for me in those days, which I still have and use today (slightly modded). I figured this West German-built 'table would last, and I was right. The second reason is, yes, indeed, I have yet to hear a regular CD of an LP that I own sound better than the CD-R I created from the LP, even on my very modest system, and that was prior to getting the SC-2. I find I get better dynamics, detail, warmth, soundstage and an absence of digital harshness from my digitized vinyl than almost every CD I own of the same recording (I have a few). My DAC is pretty good, but hardly SOTA. It is comparable in quality to my vinyl source, I think. So, that's my attraction to digitizing vinyl.
Then there is my 45 minute to one hour commute in the car, each way. Having music in the car keeps me sane as I fly down the Garden State Parkway at 10 to 15 miles per hour each day. Previously, I had a 6-disc in-dash CD changer, but now use a cheap and cheerfull FiiO file player. It takes me about 2 years to work through my entire music collection during the commute (and that doesn't count the yet-to-be digitized vinyl, of which there is a lot). When you have a lot of music, it's good to cycle through the whole collection this way, because you rediscover stuff you've owned for a long time but haven't listened to in a while. Plus, I hate repeating the same music too often.
The SC-2 makes digitizing vinyl easier, faster, cleaner and more accurate. Or, at least it will once it is fully functional.
So, I hope this answers your questions.
