7. It's major dimension is more than 800

[Pierre.Suave]

9. you have a good point

I should have considered that when posting the pic, or at least cut the relevant parts out to make it easier to load and view on smaller screens.

8. That a record player costs $1600.

:hide:

[Pierre.Suave]

10. Shit

11. Think that's high?

The price of a new Lexus plus a quarter million dollars might get you this one.

If that's too much for ya there's some cheaper one's available here

Sorry to get preachy here, and I'm not religious, but buying a $300,000 turntable has to be some kind of sin.

23. Why is a $2500 item listed in a category for items "under $2000"?

[hunter]

24. That's a fine thing to use if you are converting rare LPs to digital media...

When you are finished you can put it back in your safe deposit box until you happen upon another rare LP.

:hide:

I play the albums I find in thrift stores on an old school phonograph, the kind that looks like a 1950's suitcase with a speaker on front. However I do confess the electronics isn't original. Old capacitors die. And the needle is higer technology and easier on the vinyl than the original equipment ever was.

25. Has "Are you a genius ?" appearing on Far Right.

Like that has ever happened!

[Pierre.Suave]

26. What are you talking about?
