My New Toy

Turntable
I got me a new toy!!! This is the Audio-Technica AT-PL120. The MSRP on their website is $399.00. Rest assured I didn’t pay that much for it. Actually including shipping and handling I paid less than half of that. Whoo! With all the technology of mp3s and that nonsense, actually putting a record on, setting the tone arm down and watching it go is a sense of purity. Even the clicks and hisses and occasional skips makes the music seem more real rather than a digital reproduction which is what we are reduced to now. Don’t get me wrong. I love the mp3s and iPods and such, but there’s something special about putting in a Tennessee Ernie Ford record of hymns and letting the minutes whittle away. Don’t you think?
