Vinyl is the real deal. I've always felt like, until you buy the vinyl record, you don't really own the album.

Not really, dude. Outside of the Techiepedia, there's no mention of Techies anywhere in Analogue Art, only belt-drive T/Ts and idlers.... Therefore, wiith the Techie chat having its own dedicated section, it's not difficult to ignore
Anyway, Scott, nice AR T/T - I especially love the 'chunky' tonearm!

LUXMAN PD-375 Vacuum Disc turntable
One of my Luxmans, the pump is not working on this and is a work in progress.
I just love the quality of the build on Luxman turntables.
