    Alam ko na hindi na common mangolekta ng plaka nowadays. However, I am still keeping some new wave vinyl records with me. There are times na pini play ko yun at tinititigan ko yung mga sleeves pag inaalala ko yung 80s era. May mga times na bumibili pa din ako from ebay.

    Just want to know if somebody here in tsikot still collects/keeps vinyl records.

    Vinyl records is still much better compared to the sound of those from the CDs. Kaya naman, may mga Discos na may gumagamit pa ng mga vinyl up to now. Iba yung "kalansing" ng trebel sound na galing sa vinyl, sompared sa CD.

    Yup, we have tons of records here at home, including the 2 big albums of Spandau Ballet. Now if only may mahanap na parts for our Technics turntable.

    Yeah, he is. He used to frequent the Audiophile shop in National BS sa Q. Ave. noon and brought me along nung bata pa ako (grabbing a sandwich sa Bread Connection to my delight).

    I remember the first time I heard Pat Coil's "Steps" (Sheffield labs). Ang linaw!

    Yup I still collect them! I go to 2nd hand shops, flea markets and garage sales to buy them. I got jazz, blues, classical, 60's rock and roll, 70's, 80's, 90's as well as X'mas records. I play them on my 80's English made Manticore Mantra w/ Linn LVV tonearm and Ortofon OM10 cartridge, APX 10W class A Tube amp, and B&W DM309's. I am also into SACD's and DVD audios which has a separate set-up (Yamaha RXV 540 6.1 amp, Yamaha S657 Universal player, Kef Cresta speakers and Velodyne CHT-10R sub), my cd set-up is separate as well (Rega Apollo, Qinpu A1.0x amp, wharfedale 9.6 speakers, Paul Speltz antiwires, silver interconnects)
    some of my favorite records:

    Dire Straits (brothers in arms)
    Pink Floyd (Dark side of the moon)
    James Taylor (classic songs)
    Billy Joel (greatest hits)
    Spyro Gyra (morning dance)
    Earl Klugh (the magic of)
    Linda Ronstadt (what's new)
    Eagles (very best)
    Elvis (greatest hits)
    Engelbert Humperdink (greatest hits)
    Nat King Cole (greatest hits)

    Noong sikat pa ang Bee Gees sa mga Discos, yung Saturday Night Fever Album nila(Night Fever, Staying Alive, How Deep is Your Love, etc.) nila, ang ganda ng tunog sa vinyl. Litaw na litaw yung "kalansing at sagitsit" nung clapper sa percussion. Which is iba na ang tunog sa CD version niya.

    Yung slow rock pieces ng Scorpions, like "Always Somewhere", ang ganda rin ng labas sa vinyl. Again, sa CD, iba na ang tunog.
