    Does it makes sense to add turntable?

    I own a Rotel CD player, pre amp, and power amp, but no turntable or vinyls. I hear vinyls have now as good a sound quality as CDs do and are significantly less expensive. Any truth in this tale? Would you add a turntable?

    Thanks folks,
    Horacio

              i have a technics SL-1300 (1976 vintage) and will resurrect it for my new ht system. it weighs, maybe, 25 lbs. (?).

              Turntable recommendations
              by Kevin_McC
              Last year I got back into vinyl, but before buying a nice TT I figured I'd get a cheaper used one to try first to see if I would really still enjoy LP's.

              Well as it turns out I listen almost exclusively to LP's, so I want to get a better turntable. I have three older TT's that I've been...

              Zenith Turntable Repair
              by manhattanman
              I found a late '70's Zenith sterio in the trash. The radio and tape deck works great. It is a 70 watt unit and would play 78 rpm records if the the turntable worked. The turntable is frozen--it will not move, and when the system is put into "phono" mode, it makes a low humming noise. How...
