Question on the Smile Box Set 4cd only!! no vinyls please

Vinyl won't last forever unless you never play it. Fact.

Two words: laser turntable.

Yes, yes, I know, it's kind of expensive but at least the vinyl is never touched by anything.

Didn't know those things still existed. Thanks for that knowledge.

Now that we have the Beach Boys on 78s, I believe the best purchase would probably be the LT-!XA or the LT-1XNP:

No problem - I think ELP (bgas' link) is the only company that makes them... It's a shame they're so expensive though. The patent on laser turntables has expired, so perhaps other manufacturers will make their own models and bring prices down, but I doubt it.

And now, back to searching for a decent 78 rpm turntable in order to play my GV/H&V single...

I never buy anything that has 'ELP' on it. Period.

Actually I'm considering having my Technics SL-1200 upgraded (http://www.kabusa.com/78sl1200.htm). I'd prefer to have only one turntable, especially since I probably won't play many other 78s...
