Re: "Vinyl and LP playback has a certain appeal in some circles outside of "audiophiles"...

this reminds me of a visit from my brother about two months ago. I was just finishing up some major alterations to my downstairs system, and had an SACD disc in play when he walked in. Liked what he heard, and asked me to play something else, so I did. Then he asked me what was under the black silk cover on the table next to all my sources. Told him it was my turn table, and of course he wanted a look see. So I played a Kieth Jarrette LP for him. Then he asked me to play it on the CD player (told him I had it). Then we played some other stuff, and finally he said the turntable made those tin discs sound like frisbes.
Now he wants a turntable. He dosn't know it yet, but his nephews have bought him a Music Hall #5 for his birthday. Being the "blues head" that he is, I'd say he's gonna need two or three good LP's to perk him up a bit.
