    Amazon: Turntable Sales Beat Out All Other Home Audio Products This Christmas

    -It's beginning to look a lot like Hip-mas. The "vinyl revival" continues to outrun the fates suffered other trendy think-piece fodder, with a budget turntable selling better than any other home-audio product on Amazon this holiday season.

    According to a press release by the online retailer, Jensen's sub-$50 turntable with built-in speakers was the number one home-audio gift, beating out two separate sets of speakers built for streaming audio around the house. The boom in budget turntable sales likely means a lot of first-time vinyl listeners, helping to sustain the boom that the format has seen in the last few years.

    The RIAA has already revealed that more vinyl was sold in the last year than in any year since 1989. Sales numbers are up 52 percent just over last year and 9 million records were sold in the first half of the year alone...

    We still own a couple of turn tables or record players. Sadly, most of our 70s albums went to the dump after we got saved. Couldn't go spreading all that demon music around.

    And I gave away all my vinyl gospel albums (had a whole bunch of them). The pain of regret.

    I bought an old Jesus Christ Superstar album at a yard sale a few months ago, didn't know why except that it was in really good shape and was only a buck.

    Interesting. I still have a good turntable and many records that I had back in the late 60s early 70s. I gave away a whole bunch when I got saved, but somehow these survived in my parent's basement and I wasn't aware of it until I found them several years ago.
