Vinyl is coming back!


Aren't you glad you've still got your direct-drive Quartz turntable with the Grado pickup cartridge? And those 12-inch LPs you've been saving? Like the song says, 'Everything old is new again'.

Wondering why? It's because vinyl has nice big grooves that reproduce the sound with a more life-like quality. With a good pickup cartridge like a Grado, your vinyl can sound better than a CD of the same stuff. I've confirmed that with Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side'. The vinyl LP playing through my old Technics Stereo with its honeycomb speakers sounds better than the CD version. It has a fuller and richer sound.
