Vinyl is back Sony at Sears

OK, so I'm blasting through the local (quite small) Sears as a short cut to another store in the mall, and what do I spy out of the corner of my eye? A really nasty/cheap Sony, direct-drive turntable! Clear evidence that the tide has turned...

Too funny! Hadn't seen those yet...they are desperate to replace the lost cd sales with something!

Wait a minute, I thought CD was 'perfect sound forever'...yeah, right....

I was in Chicago where I saw a large add for shoes that also featured some hi-fi equipment. One of those cheap Ion tables stacked on a brand new McIntosh pre-amp. That would be like pumping crude oil directly into your Porshe. Obviously not an ad geared towards us a-philes.
