The Resurgence of Vinyl


I remember the first time my record club "Columbia" started sending CDs instead of vinyl, my heart sank.  I had heard some of my friends CDs, but the sound quality was not the same .
Unfortunately unless you were a DJ,  who played mostly dance music,  Record labels pretty much shut down pressings for the other genres.
Fortunately some bands held out and offered a vinyl version of new recordings.
Today many of the smaller labels and some of the major ones are releasing vinyl, and opening  pressing plants.
Why buy vinyl? you may ask.  There is a warmth to pure analog sound that can't be captured in a digital recording.  Another aspect is the album cover and sleeve.  In earlier days you sometimes got a poster insert and interesting pictures inside.   Who knows, we may see a resurgance in future pressings.
With a great stereo system, vinyl recordings offer a much more enhanced live sound, so if you’re an audiophile  with the inspiration to recreate the great sounds of your past or new to the  vinyl scene, there are many options out there for you to create a system worthy of the music played on it.
   To get you started, Here are a few good options, for different needs and varying price                                                    points.
