Between computer audio (building up a 3k HD album collection), Spotify and Pandora, I find myself barely listening to my record collection. I do have some really great stuff, including a dozen or so Mosiac box sets, bunches of Blue Note and Prestige jazz, blah, blah, blah. The thing is that my Grandson wasted my Ace L. to replace it, I'm looking at the Dynavector 20x2, but I'm not sure if I'm into the vinyl thing anymore. Is it a passing thing? I don't know. A real mixed emotion decision for me. Anybody else go through this? Whatcha end up doing? A little remorse has never bothered me to much. I figure between my LP12, Lingo II, Linto and the lp's it would add up to a quit a few grand. I could certainly put that to good use someplace in my system....I suppose. |

How can you rationally dispute the qualifier; 'often' Let alone charge "utter bullshit"? |
