] With Elp Corporation's new laser turntable, it has
] blasted vinyl record technology into the 21st century by
] beaming a laser onto the record grooves so that there is
] no physical contract whatsoever with the record. It is
] the only analog record player that does not wear records.
] Musical information is processed in analog, and all
] circuitry is analog as well for completely analog sound
] reproduction. It connects to any phono pre-amplifier
] producing audiophile quality sound in either mono or
] stereo.

] The laser turntable can play 7-, 8.5-, 10-, 11-, and
] 12-in. diameter records. It can playback 33-1/3, 45, and
] 78 rpm records. There%u2019s also a variable speed
] control in 30-50 rpm in 0.1 rpm steps, and 60-90 rpm in
] 0.2 rpm steps. There are a total of five lasers: two
] for the left and right groove walls, two for tracking
] groove pitch, and one for tracking groove warp. No
] adjustment is required for anti-skate, and it uses linear
] tracking to zero tracking error distortion. Since the
] optical pickup is controlled by microprocessors, the
] laser turntable operates much like a CD player with
] cueing to individual cuts, random access, and repeat
] play, and it offers numerous programming possibilities.
] The laser turntable displays elapsed/remaining or total
] time just like a CD player.
