If I am not mistaken, I am now the last known American who still has a record player.

You must be the other guy. I still have a perfectly operating Kenwood platter turner.

U kiddin?
The hand-made high end replacement cartridge for my turntable now runs about 1600 bux.
I can get a cheapo version for about 250...

So my B&O gets alot of TLC...

as have records:

Nope - unless a turntable doesn’t fit your definition of “record player”. I love my vinyl - over 300 mostly classic rock albums. FMCDH!

You are wrong my FRiend, you are actually on the vanguard. They are now selling USB record players to plug directly into your computer.
