I have a vinyl LP enroute from Great Britain as I type this.
Selling my current turntables to upgrade to a new one that's made in Delavan, WI, about 20 minutes from here.
In listen to at least 1 album every day. I just sit there and listen. No phone or anything. Just listen.

Here's another one you could get.
The entire turntable has been machined from a single block of aluminium and includes only two output jacks on the side of the enclosure; power comes from a USB Type-C 5 V connector and the internal phono pre-amp is connected to a 3.5mm output (which can be used as a headphone jack or 3.5mm to RCA output).
If you’re still looking for the tonearm and cartridge — give it up.
There is no tonearm to adjust, no complex settings—just place the vinyl upside down, press Play, and the 0.4 x 0.7 mil elliptical diamond stylus does the rest. Waiting for Ideas does not specify if the PP-1 utilizes a MM or MC cartridge, but it’s mounted upside down to read the grooves.
The other rather interesting feature is the self-learning closed-loop speed control, that figures out if you are playing a 33.3 or 45 rpm record.
Only USD$6000

Anybody who really valued their vinyl collection would surely invest in a laser-turntable, which reads the disk without contacting it.
And for $11,0000, you get CD quality transfer of data, at only 30 times the price of a decent CD player!

This is fascinating. Hit the arrow to start the animation.

Ringtones had their brief moment in the sun, lol.
that's right. 555. Kind of forgot that I dont hear those very much at all anymore.
I have a ringtone of the pocket watch chimes from the spaghetti western For a Few Dollars More. Have used it going on 18 years. Very few people recognise what it is or the story behind it.

Very cool. May just have to do that also!
