No time to get to know any album. I am more like @mahgister than you, but not to that extent. I don’t know how many hundreds of times I’ve listened to “Kind of Blue” or”Aja” or dozens of others and noticed new things sometimes, especially if I’ve changed a component or better yet, put in a tweak.
to each his own...whatever makes you happy and enjoy the hobby. Like I said, I am 100% vinyl, but I can see the attraction of SACDs for a younger audiophile than me by 10-20 years who grew up with no vinyl coming out and their new music only available on CD.
I can even understand those who listen to compressed streams in order to explore lots of new music. I’m very picky and very biased towards albums that came out when I was in college and high school and classic (mostly) jazz I discovered 20 years ago.
I will say that in listening to Sirius in my wife’s car, I rediscovered a few people/groups that I knew about but never got into and bought some albums that I like. I play CDs in mine because I hate switching stations. Therefore, I guess nobody can be 100% vinyl since you can’t play a turntable in a car.
