Not quite. I had a couple months with the LXs and my old tables. Hopefully in a month or two I'll get my mule plinth for my SP-10 MKII.
I miss listening to masterings I have that only exist on vinyl, and at times the ritual, experience, and nostalgia. At other times I get annoyed with the ritual as often my time to listen is short. As for the sound, I care far more about the source content and mastering than I do about the medium.
I do have to admit, for the few albums were I'm confident the same master was used for the digital and the vinyl, the digital reins supreme. I've less than a handful of albums where this is the case. Though, sometime the vinyl ritual is more pleasing.
At any rate, competent equipment operating properly along with speakers designed to best interface with the realities of your particular room setup correctly, and room acoustics are far, far more important IMO.
