For all you Vinyl lovers!

Enjoyable post Tony.  Nail on the head.

My hunch as to why I find vinyl so natural and smooth is that, fortunately, many years ago, someone invented the technology to turn sound into a physical groove on a "record" (they didn't even use vinyl until years later).  There was no loss of information.

Enter digital sampling.  It will always be a sample, no matter how far that technology advances.  There are many enjoyable digital recordings, but when I want the real thing, I pull out the vinyl.

Again, this is just my hunch.
Yeah Tony you nailed it, I still love vinyl,
But have to admit the process is bothersome, oh look my Jethro Warchild needs turning to side 2, BRB
Don't forget to turn it up fast before keeps putting miles on your precious styli
And now I have some new records that come as a 2 disc set- 10 minutes per side. I’m just nodding off when I hear, "ker Plunk" and I have to get up and turn the record over. Sheesh! But it was absolutely the best 10 minutes of the day.
OK for the cost no object "in" crowd in NYC who will get his stuff because they are keeping up with the Joneses. I'm sure it sounds great.

He couldn't even give ballpark pricing (other than hundreds of thousands of dollars) and his website is very opaque. If you want his speakers you have to buy is amps.....nothing else in the world will work???

He has great PR people getting his interview on a CBS Saturday morning show with a reporter acting like he never heard a stereo in his life.

He wants to be a manufacturer, reseller, installer, consultant....take as much $$ as you'll give him.
