does it still come with the vacuum cleaner you need to clean the record before playing it? ISTR a 'slight issue' with those, in that (unlike a stylus) a laser beam can't shovel dust out of the way as it plays... |

mind you, that's going back a looong time. maybe modern laser turntables are cleverer, somehow. |

is there an IA collection for mail-order catalogs? I have gotten frustrated by the lack of scans of old catalogs onlineΓ’ΒΒ¦ |

Baljem: the audioturntable site gives you one- you rent it for a week, and if you like it, you pay the other half of the cost, and you keep everything |

I've got an Ion USB turntable so I'll be using that to dump some LPs in the near future |

laser turntable f.ex. reads the bottom of the groove, which a needle won't touch |

so you get closer to the un-worn sound |

joepie91, if they're legal documents aren't they public record or whatever? |

also on their help page https://www.dropbox.com/help/45/en it says "Your links will be temporarily disabled" Γ’ΒΒ implying they might come back online sometime |
