If possible, listen to LPs Albums, not mp3s or cds, unless SACDs
A solid 2 channel sound system is incredible to listen to your favorite albums.

Alan Parsons Project is kind of like that....they're all good, play the whole album in one sitting. I'm gonna pick this as my favorite, though:

It really is but the problem with analog is you've got to spend some substantial coin on a good table, particularly the arm/cartridge to close the gap.

Then you have to deal with the pops/clicks that are distracting if you don't have good or aged pressings.
Then there's the "newer" vinyl that is poorly mastered, heavily compressed, and mastered by an engineer that uses little studio monitors that sound tinny.
I could go on for hours and the debate rages as it really is a subjective matter.

I have a pretty stout 2 channel rig but no turn table.
My buddy on the other hand has an incredible setup and spends a lot of money on vintage vinyl, virgin masters etc.

We spent months measuring and tweaking his room with acoustic treatments and the result is glorious.

Cool
I’ll say it. Houses of the Holy and pretty much every LZ album.

Katy Lied and Countdown to Ecstasy.
Oh hell…I love all of them.
Face it, every Steely Dan album kicked ass. Especially the ones with Skunk Baxter

Wow. Nice rig. I am sure that you can stream high quality audio and play it on that.
Astell & Kern? What do you use?
