A valid point. However, if you have a system priced at $13,500/$20,500 I just can't imagine this catching on in the home audio market. If they sell 1,000 of these, I'll be amazed. It's kind of a neat idea (yeah, I realize it's analogue now - missed that before), but it's just not neat enough. I have several friends that DJ, it's what I'm used to.
It's not analogue though, it's digital so I'm not sure exactly who they are marketing this to. Vinyl DJs *like* surface noise, it's part of the experience. I also understand you can't scratch with this, which you can even with CDs now. CD DJs on the other hand are not too likely to give up on their vaste CD collections and flock to vinyl because of this. The only neat thing about this is that you can tape your broken records and the laser can still read them. Expensive solution though. Anyone have anything that rare?!?
Namaste! I've found a fellow child of Shiva in the most unlikely of places. Greetings DeadDLoK. I completely agree that Goa is the sound of the future maybe of a generation, but I just can't listen to it while doing anything else. It is simply too rich. Goa is best on the dance floor or lying on your back in your room trancing out. Bom Shankar!

I believe rap stands for "Rhythmic American Poetry" and, yeah, as far as I know it began in NYC.
