It's good to have friends with big vinyl collections, kinda like having a friend with a boat -- you enjoy without the responsibility, lol.
I'm no music expert. To me, CDs sound better than MP3s for what I like, so I listen to CDs at home. I like older jazz, including Django Reinhardt, who was a guitarist. Much of my music is in instrumentals only.

My story is the same (moved overseas, left a huge vinyl collection, etc.). It sounded so good, especially in a room acoustically prepared for this, with turntables on the walls, on the marble to prevent any interference, etc. We all make compromises. Several hundred vinyls weren't something I could move easily from Europe to N. America.
Oh, yes, the old Django who did with three fingers better music than many with five
