Nightline- vinyl segment


Nightline did a nice story on vinyl's resurgence last night. Go to Nightline.com , "vinyl, the last track" to view.

Yeah I saw that last night.. only they did not show anything "high end" or "audiophile" quality.. just 70's type DD tables, S-arms, and cheapo DJ cartridges. They were clueless...

The amazing thing about a dancing bear isn't how well it dances, but that it dances at all!

Maybe that was just as well. If it had been a profile of audiogeeks with $12,000 turntables, $4,000 "needles," and $2500 phono stages, the lasting impression would have been that the vinyl resurgence is limited to high-rolling weirdos. It's a much more positive effect if it's presented as mainstream and most of all, affordable. The people profiled were accessible and the gear they had was familiar and affordable.
