Laser vinyl record reader.

You like your vinyl records but don t like the fact that you re killing them. A vinyl record has a label of typically 3 to 4 inches and it is safe to assume the groves are 4 inches on either side. The purest music just like the master tapes you ve never heard. The laser turntable is still reading the vinyl in an analog format whereas a cd is read in digital format.

The laser only reads from black vinyl records unfortunately since lasers are made of light and transparent or colored discs tend to let light pass through. A record that runs for 22 minutes has 720 groves across a given radius and therefore a grove is 4800 720 or 6 66 pixels per grove. Vinyl records are played with a needle. At 1200 dpi this corresponds to 4800 dpi.

This mechanical transmission of sound is not unlike the technique thomas edison first used to record and reproduce so. Unlike a traditional stylus the laser turntable achieves the highest fidelity from vinyl records with no wear on your precious collection. But they say the lasers read above the needle groove damage to get a virginal playback of played smooth vinyl and you can set broken record pieces together to play a previously unplayable record. The laser turntable employs patented technology that produces phenomenal fidelity while never physically touching the record thus eliminating the deterioration to the album s surface inflicted by conventional.
