Subj : cleaning old 78 vinyls ? To : WAYNE CHIRNSIDE From : TOM WALKER Date : Fri Jun 17 2005 09:16 am WC>-> That was a popular thing to do for real collector items. Some nowdays WC>-> rip them to Wave files and burn a CD for playing. And for the real WC>-> purist in a magazine recently I saw an Blip on a $15,000 Laser Beam WC>-> turntable. NOTHING except the Laser touches the Recorded Grouve. :-) WC>I've seen one of those. WC>The one I saw was offered for sale quite a few years ago at WC>about half the price you cite but as the numbner of LP's declined WC>and unit sales diminished I imagine that drove the price up. I think this is a New Improved model. But it is a very small market nitch, and declining every year. Althohgh at $15,000 EACH I suspect they will not loose money. . --- þ SLMR 2.1a þ This note from El Cajon California USA * Origin: Try Our Web Based QWK: DOCSPLACE.ORG (1:123/140) .
