Your preferred method to listen to music?

[MisterWack]

Thought this was an interesting question to ask on GAG, I don't know how many will answer with very refined tastes though that is why we have choices.

Vinyl (33 / 45 / 78 Records)

Reel To Reel Tapes OR Original Master Recording On Specialized CD Equipment (For Audiophiles Out There)

Digital Download / CD to Digital (includes iPods & Zunes & Phones of all kinds, etc.)

Streaming Services

Cassette Tapes

ALL or some of the following with DAC / professional headphones

ALL or some of the following with standard earbuds (wireless or wired, doesn’t matter).

This is just a question that I thought was interesting to ask, no real reason why I asked this. Looking forward to your answers.

I wanted to put ‘Option H’: Other Media Devices / Obscure.

Vinyl and CD if I have no other choice. I can't tolerate the compressed, low quality streaming services. Spotify sounds awful on a high-end stereo system.

[MisterWack]

@Nikki1989 Nice choices

Its got to be CD. I use Spotify to find new music... then buy it on CD if I can find it.

[MisterWack]

I honestly use YouTube to look for new music then buy it on CD.

Vinyl and CD at home, and high bitrate OGG files on my phone when on the go.

@llorando Nice

jango. but spotify is bad.

[MisterWack]

Checked out Jango, seems good. I agree that Spotify is trash.

Not a stereophile. It’s a broad combination depending on the immediate availability and circumstances.

[MisterWack]

Same tbh. Though I will prefer certain lives / studio mixes lmao.
