--- I am dead curious as to what lies in the Future of Turntables.
...Like forty-fifty years from now? ...Will they become relics, vestiges of the past collecting dust by the collectors, or will they still improve the state-of-the-art music reproduction provided by the vinyls of the past, present, and future?
What do you guys/gals truly envision?
Cars will be flying? CDs, will they still exist? Hi Res audio streaming, is that where things will be?
Physical/musical mediums, is there still a future on those?
You, all intelligent members here, you all know how sophisticated it is to setup properly a rotating turntable to play vinyls, and how devoted one has to be in the preparation, cleaning up the vinyls themselves, setting up the cartridge, azimuth (vertical/horizontal), tracking force, tonearm, motor speed, and all that jazz in order to be musically satisfied.
Is the look (cool appearance and mechanism) of the Turntable more important to some people than the ultimate music reproduction quality, and also the simplicity or complexity of life?
What I'd truly like to know here, in this thread, is the honest truth from each comment made by any of you. :b
* And I am very flexible; music encompasses several mediums, so please feel totally free to expand as far as you wish. ...This new thread is in the Turntable section, but it is a 'trampoline' as well, if you know what I mean.

And if it is at nighttime, do you shut off the lights? ...Or do you look at your records spinning on your turntable(s)?
