I, too, still enjoy my hundreds of records and hope that I can do so for a long time yet. Ditto my cassettes. Somewhere my beloved 78's got lost, so I no longer need my 78 rpm table. I do wish that I had started CD earlier, but they didn't invent it fast enuf. And yes, CD'S are forcing some of the vinyl vendors to straighten up and fly right. We will all benefit from that. AS you have read I have suggested restraint in $$ invested in turntables. I have a confession to make (only partly revealed before). Several years ago I literally started saving my pennies for a CD player which I had seen coming for maybe 25 years. Unfortunately, I saved the price twice over before the product was ready. So, I updated my analog equipment for hopefully the last time. I went for the Sony PS-600 with a Shure V15-V. That's about $500 discount and the best I've ever had. I don't see more for me, but then, everyone has his own cost/effectiveness formulae. Dick Grantges hound!rfg
