Survey-What is your most used source?


Just curious, what is your most used source: CD, tuner, cassette, LP, dish...?

I purchased a tuner about six months ago, I hadn't used one in my system in well over 10 years. It is easily now my most used source.

Model: Fanfare FT-1A

Wife, 15 yr old daughter, TV (gotta be honest),62 year old Steinway B, tuner, then by beloved CDP. Sometimes I wish the order would flip...!
CDP-64%,tuner-30%,TV-06%.more or less an accurate representation for me. many find it 'odd' that someone my age (24) can 'only' watch about 2 hours of TV, a week. I tell you, it's pretty easy when you don't have cableTV, nor sat. It's not like there's really anything on. And besides, I only have a 13inch TV (looks kind of sad next to my stereo, actually!)

I don't have a vinyl source, so that counts me out for that. Though I might like to try that someday, especially if we get slapped with more 'playback-restricted' CD titles.

Oh, and the 'tuner' numbers are a little inflated as I'm ALSO counting the time I use the radio in my car. Though I do listen to some college radio while at home. I usually catch the late night heavy metal shows. That allows me to expose myself to hopefully music I have not heard yet. (I'm big into heavy metal and classical).

So without counting the car, it's: CDP-80%,tuner-12%,TV-08%.
I used to mostly listen to my old Dynalab tuner. Recently I upgraded to their best offerng & I still mostly listen to my tuner!
well,my most used source has change again!
I bought a MINT Mcintosh MR-74 tuner and can't listen to it enough!
I sold my Rega P-25 and Grado Platinum.The LP's are in storage.I decided to dump the analog front end while I could still get a decent price.I bought both new and sold for $50 less than I paid.A good deal if you ask me.
now I want to build an analog front end again but Im raising the bar a bit and going used.Maybe a Sota Sapphire/rega rb-250 highly modified.still undecided about a new cartridge.
