So I guess waiting for next years model won't help the price any. I wonder if they have a payment plan?


That way I can play the ten-twenty records that I have. I know a guy that could sell his record collection and buy this thing easy...of course, then he wouldn't need it.

I still have over 200 LPs and a good turntable, though I seldom play the albums. But some of them will never be available in any other format, so I plan to keep them indefinitely.
