ION has created a revolutionary USB turntable allowing you to convert your old vinyl collection directly to CD or MP3 with included recording software. The ION TTUSB also features a switchable phono/line level output for connecting to any home stereo with an AUX input.

The phonograph, or gramophone, was the most common device for playing recorded sound from the 1870s through the 1980s. The limitations that lead to the decline in popularity include the fragility and tendency to wear, the size and means of playback that make it impractical for use in an automobile, and it's imperfect reproduction when compared to a bit-by-bit no loss system. Record pressing has been slowly growing in recent years and is available for a reasonable price. You can find vinyl record manufactures by searching google for "record-pressing services".
