It's not April 1st is it by any chance?
It would mean my time travel experiment was a success if so.......

Why not use a non-contact stylus on a turntable?
I read comments about static-free playback of LPs with some amount of satisfaction.
When CDs were introduced, I quit worrying about the mechanics and started enjoying the music. More so with computer audio.
However, lots of folks like vinyl .... apparently. ;<)
Why not take all the worry, wringing of hands, and frustration out of the equation by insisting on touch-free stylus technology?
What is the technology? Hell if I know! But if nerds can sample the bits on a CD, they can sure as heck track the grooves on an LP!
Not only track the grooves, but filter out the grunge!
Play your oldest vinyl in complete background silence!
Put technology to work on vinyl! You’ll breathe easier for it.
Kind regards,
Greg

A product of any one of the companies you cite might well be used to create a novel type of phono cartridge but can you say how one would read the information in the grooves without contacting the surface? That’s the crux of your issue, is it not? The ELP laser turntable does work, but as you’ve been told, it has serious shortcomings. You act and sound as if there were some very obvious solutions to what you think is a problem. Enlighten us. Or go away. |
