I got this deck 2 months ago - Opera-Consonance - Droplet LP5.  I pretty much stop listening to digital... playing through the wonderful Eros.  Loving it!

Beautiful table.  I understand how you can get lost in vinyl.

Congratulations!

Enjoy! That's a beautiful rig.  I would caution that you not give up entirely on digital. Cleaning and flipping records is nice but on occacion digital will win over :)

Of course almost all of the records you pick up post 1980 are going to be digital...

Cleaning is a necessary evil to me.  It gives me back pain so I put it off too long.  I now have a 6" stack waiting.  But it is very effective.

That is one beautiful table.   I lust for it...    I do agree with Johnsonad though.   Don't give up on digital.    I spent yesterday afternoon cleaning new/used records I picked up from Goodwill.    After the third album I needed a bit of a break and turned on a CD to just relax and enjoy.   I am not as critical as I am with my vinyl, but critical none the less.   Given the right components, digital can still blow you away.    Every now and then I just like to relax, listen to music and not worry about the end of an album. :-*
