Listening to music the way it's supposed to be enjoyed

Sometimes the greatest pleasures in life can be had for a very small investment in time and money.

All this fancy technology has given us endless possibilities to enjoy music. But there is file compression in almost all these systems. Some of the real quality of the music listening experience is lost.

Nothing takes the place of the old-fashioned vinyl records that were played on a turntable. I made an investment of $139,00 to buy a turntable. I put a television sound system with it that was obsolete and going to be given away.

Most long-play vinyl records can be purchased for around $10,00 each. Each afternoon as I read, I listen to these vinyl records playing on the turntable. What an incredible music experience!!!
