If you read the article they are talking about revenues not units sold and it’s a pittance
Lps are a small niche

Just goes to show how damn expensive vinyl is. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm about to buy this 8-CD set of Mozart piano sonatas and variations by Daniel Barenboim for $20, new.

Hmmm. Can't vouch for the equipment but the vinyl prices aren't impressive.

Fellow forumers,
Here is my situation…
I recently had to take down all of my audio gear and have set everything up again.
I have a very simple set up with a music hall turntable >>> pre amp >>> amp/receiver >>> out to B+W CM8s that are approximately eight years old.
When audio comes out through Sonos or the TV, everything is perfectly crisp and clean.
When audio is coming from my turntable, certain pieces of music almost sound like the speakers are blown out, somewhat of a rattling/static sound is the best way to describe it. It's appears the sound I'm hearing is coming out only the left tweeter or mid range speaker.
any advice/feedback is appreciated.
Also, if anyone wants to buy this, I'll deliver within 20 miles for $150

As soon as the price dropped on this to $220, I bought one and its spectacular. If I could convince the Misses we need two of these, I would take you up on this.

Have to say, I've looked into this many times as well
I'm going to wait until the day of the show and see if I can get it for $25

Amazing piece that unfortunately never met my needs in terms of functionality for our home.
I definitely took a hit on my investment in this furniture that could've gone to my 401k or my child's 529.

I have this or I would, also, take you up on it.
I need to acquire a couple of simple cubes to hold the rest of the collection that does not fit in this.
