Hi, I prefer vinyl as well.....with six turntables that is a giveaway. Next is a tough call. Either reel to reel tape or digital (no loss types). The cassette which as I mentioned can be really good on decent gear. Unfortunately most recordings are made on average equipment and do not convey the sound as best it might be. Then comes lossy digital. I seldon use any as my portable player (a Fiio X3) can handle any format I want and with 128 GB of storage a zillion tracks. Smart phones have come a long way and newest ones are quite excellent, but I don't use mine that way.
