Which is the most valuable record in your collection?
A first pressing of Ray Barretto's Acid (Mono). Besides that, from a purely personal perspective, the most valuable record in our collection would be Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother, which was the first record my partner picked up for me.

Do your hardware homework, learn to tune your own setup, get your audio and electronics basics right, and spend time cleaning your records. And, don't use records to listen to your gear.
What genres of music do you like?
Progressive rock, especially from the 60s to the 80s; psychedelic; krautrock; electronic in the vein of Kraftwerk and Air; jazz; blues; classic rock; and so on. Our collection is eclectic to say the least.
