It is interesting to learn from reading the other posts on this thread that most of us, or most of you, don’t own more than 1000 LPs. In my opinion, there really is a lot to be gained from having a large number of LPs. Because in that way you can occasionally enter a Time Machine and revisit different areas of your past life when this or that artist might have taken your fancy, and maybe now you forgot about that music. I really would not be happy with fewer than 1000 LPs at this late stage of my life. Maybe in fact 1500 is a minimum for me. A few years ago I inherited 900 LPs from my dearest audiophile friend who passed away at that time. I culled them from his 6000 LP collection. And I am fairly sure that his wife gave away the remainder after I took what I wanted. That is what put me up to the 2500 LP mark mentioned above. I truly enjoy listening to any of his 900 LPs. They’re all premium pressings in mint condition. It brings me closer to the days when he and I used to listen at his house on his system.
How many vinyl albums do you own you listen to?
So far I own around 300 vinyl albums all purchased in a last 20 years. Even while I listen to for about 10 albums a week it seems I want to keep adding more and more to my library. I wonder if there is a point when one says it's enough, there is no point to add more as there is no time or an interest to listen to them all. How many do you have? How much time it look to put it together? How many of them do you really listen?
