    About 2+ hours a day. Critical listening is about an hour Saturday and Sunday.

    It is a known issue. There is a planned upgrade to the web-site which will address most of these issues.

    Welcome to CS, Jim! You have found the place for group hugs, therapy, anonymity, ... . Pictures of your gear are always appreciated, even though you are waiting on some more deliveries.

    This thread is confusing with this one - What are you listening to? (the original thread). Mods - can the current thread be merged with the original?

    Dent reminds me, first and foremost, of Arthur Dent from Douglas Adams's HitchHiker's Guide.

    Welcome to CS, PhilDent! (Any relationship to Phil Dent, the Tennis player ). A BillD C1 is the ultimate. To color-match, a C11 would go with the 400x as well.

    This cannot be avoided, but the sleeve in which the record is stored. It would be better to 'move' the static charge from the vinyl to an outer sleeve, made of a suitable material. Paper or plastic have challenges with such movement. Why not put the the vinyl in an aluminum foil and remove static off the vinyl surface? Or discharge before it is played, avoiding the whole 'sleeve' debate?

    Is the percentage (99) correct? Static buildup can be due to other reasons as well - friction, typically.

    vinyl storage

    An electronic cataloging system may be a better living-breathing solution for search ability. Storage can also be automated, but can be elaborate and expensive. Thanks for the pictures. Beautiful arrangements.

    Bit-rate is just one aspect of the audio-codec. Are you planning to stream the MP3 to regular stereo system or just use it on the phone? Here is an example, where bit-rate is the same, but one is Apple Loseless, the other is a MP3 of the same song. For example, see the differences. If I play both of them through a BillD C1/M500t MkII, I can tell the difference between the two versions. I use an Airport Express Gen 2 to stream from iTunes.
