I would have to say CD's on my main rig... though I have been listening to my computer-based rig a lot too since it is conveniently located.

I'm surprised two people listen to SACDs the most since the choice of titles is so small. I figure I'm around 60% CDs, 35% vinyl, and 5% DVD-A and radio. I'd listen to vinyl more, but CDs are more office-friendly than vinyl.

This piece sure does get a lot of use around my house. I don't use it for critical listening, but I sure do get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

It's been vinyl almost exclusively for about a year now. Recently, however, I've discovered the stunning analog sound quality of pre-recorded reel to reel tape. About the only digital source I use nowadays is my iPod. I just LOVE analog. When even my wife commented that vinyl sounded better than Cds, I knew I was on to something.

I like the monkeys. Heheh. Monkeys. As long as they're not flinging feces.

CD but I wish I had more SACD to listen to.

 

[D-EJ915]

Computer, since I usually listen to music when I'm on it. Although I use my cd player through my car's stereo and at home before bed.

I mostly listen to lps , infact i have duplicated almost my entire cd collection with the vinyl versions due to the throw away prices of used lps , the only thing holding me back is the exessive high prices of new release vinyl compared to cd , sacd and dvd - A just dont have enough titles that i would be prepared to buy, i hope that both camps look to releasing far more classic rock and modern titles its the only way to keep the formats popular and if they dont survive i really hope that any new format coming in the future will allow back compatable feature so we could still enjoy any dvd - A and sacd we have collected, in closing i love all the current formats available its just that lps give me just a bit more sound quality over redbook cd , cheers .

Why ? Has it changed much for the past 10 yrs ? Imo Radio gives unpredicted listening pleasure (and other way round, but there's that 'channel' button).

In the US all radio has been "Clear-Channel-ized" (the FCC loosened restrictions on the number of radio stations that a signal company can own, and Clear Channel bought up as many as they could) so almost all stations now play pre-programmed top-40 hits (as mandated by record companies) for their respective genres.

EDIT: Okay not all stations are like that, but most are.

I listen a lot to the radio at home and in the car, but not to the local Clear Channel stations. We have a good public radio station that plays mostly classical music, plus an independent station and a public station that each play jazz. At work I listen to CDs.

 

[rsaavedra]

Mostly CD's, some SACD's. Now that it was mentioned, I do listen to radio quiet a bit, in the car and also at home, especially NPR, like that station a lot. Just now for instance they were playing "Aleluya" by K.D. Lang, beautiful.

Computers are holding their own quite well here. Convenience is king but one of these days we'll convince the hold-outs that this stuff sounds GREAT. I broke Ray Samuels down just last weekend after he'd vehemently denied the EMU 1212m's at another meet. It only took the right music, and the fact that I didn't approach him with a "challenge" that my computer would beat the crap out of his Meridian, as most people are wanting to prove.
