RE: with all due respect for your 69 year old ears

I am even older than you, my hearing is not what used to be but it is still fine, fine enough to clearly hear all the surface noise, clicks and pops of vinyl, I started with vinyl some 55 years ago, when digital arrived I embraced it and have never looked back.

For pop, jazz and rock I can see using vinyl once in a while, but for classical which is my prime interest vinyl is not suitable, most classical works do have very quiet passages, whisper like, this is where vinyl surface noise overtakes the music, and in the loud passages vinyl can not delver uncompressed dynamic range so crucial for lifelike presentation.
