Use a low volume so there is no feedback through the Turntable and you can replay the recording 500 times instead of 50 times before loss of fidelity as on the Vinyl.<BR/>Oh and do use a tube Amp.

This paper is dead, dead, dead if it stays in the hands of hardcore anti-journalism bosses. <BR/><BR/>Here is something else you should know: Zell isn't your partner, he's a amoral scourge upon the earth. Just ask any of the hundreds of fixed-income, elderly, infirmed now-homeless that he and his lawyers created when they forced cities and counties to drop rent controls. I think that he is going to create a whole bunch of ESOP-less former LAT employees too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20863951.post-84111930493348107962008-04-17T14:07:00.000-07:002008-04-17T14:07:00.000-07:00My 8 track still has a recorder,but i cant get the...My 8 track still has a recorder,but i cant get the tapes,and my 78 are all scratchedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20863951.post-17097860410635495122008-04-17T13:34:00.000-07:002008-04-17T13:34:00.000-07:00If AM radio can survive there might just be a chan...If AM radio can survive there might just be a chance newspapers can too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20863951.post-66993011153307372962008-04-17T12:07:00.000-07:002008-04-17T12:07:00.000-07:00And, many people still enjoy vinyl records and 8-t...And, many people still enjoy vinyl records and 8-track tapes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20863951.post-30407547603129580132008-04-17T11:44:00.000-07:002008-04-17T11:44:00.000-07:00How long will it before all news is on line?I reme...How long will it before all news is on line?<BR/><BR/>I remember during the Apollo program all the Futuristic sooth sayers talked about how life would be in the 21st Century.

With internet penetration so high here in SoCal, the crisis in newspaper revenues, the nationwide economic slow down, and the Tribune's huge debt, how long do you think it will be before the news goes 100% online?<BR/><BR/>2. The Times can't compete with Transcon because Times production employees are very expensive. Do you think that Transcon will have operators that make 100K/yr?<BR/><BR/>3. The Orange County plant has problems.
