A lot of DJs still like to scratch and mix the "old school" way...mostly dance and underground stuff still can be had in vinyl. Pro music stores still carry DJ turntables and cartridges, and one or two consumer brands still occupy a shelf at the local Best Buy or Fry's.

Otherwise, there's a local bookstore that carries used LPs. My wife and I like to treasure trove for fun there sometimes!

I was a party and radio DJ during my college years, so I have a pretty massive collection of vinyl. I don't get much time to listen to vinyl, but on occasion, I will pull out a favorite album and listen.

This was my first turntable...a Dual. Served me during my college years at the dorm room and thereafter. It sits in a rack in my media room now, and since my daughter pretty much rules in there, I don't really get to sit and listen to music as much as I would like.




Picked up the Philips on eBay a couple of years ago. I keep this one in my home office/music studio, where I am more likely to engage in some serious music listening. I have ELO on the platter as I write this!
