	Turntable platter for record players - Patent 4535438
		The most critical point of the sound reproduction chain "armgramophone record-platter-plinth" of a record player is without doubt the platter, which is still today being made of metal alloy, owing to the high resonance of sound which is a distintive property of metals.
		The rotation of a gramophone record on the turntable platter is always accompanied by vibrations produced by the stylus tracking the side surfaces of the groove.
		During the experiments, comparison was made of the graphs obtained by a spectrum analyser connected to the sound pickup of a record player on which were mounted both the glass-plastic platter and the metal platter.

		The records were also easy to load, unlike the standard phonograph the tone arm was not lifted then lowered onto the start of the record.
		Moving the tone arm over the record would start it spinning, when the bottom of the red button would hit a stop next to the turntable the button would be released and the needle would be placed in the starting groove.
		As the record was finished playing the tone arm would move out of the way, that record would drop to the bottom of the spindle and the next record would start playing.

	Buyer's Guide to Record Players and Turntables - Associated Content
		Although record players have been far outpaced by newer methods of listening to music, many people still use them, and they continue to be manufactured by some brands.
		The words "record player" and "turntable" are used interchangeably by different people, so it is helpful to try searching with both of these terms when looking for record players to purchase on the internet - especially with online auction services like eBay.
		If purchasing records over the internet, you might consider looking for the 45 RPM type, as they should be less expensive to ship and take up less storage space in your home.

	Pioneer CDJ-1000 Reviews. CD Players/Recorders Reviews by CNET.
		Record players have survived for so long in nightclubs because no DJ-oriented CD player has been able to truly mimic a turntable.
		The player lets you store cue points and loop points for up to 10 CDs in its memory so that you won't need to reset these every time you put the disc in the player.
		We were able to seamlessly mix records and CDs as long as we paid enough attention to the EQ settings on each source.

	Re: record players - Post 7238
		When a record is "cut" into the vinyl the sound goes through a filter which removes all the bass, in fact it is an E.Q. slope which operates at -6dB per octave.
		One could envision a system in which the left channel was recorded laterally, as on a monophonic recording, with the right channel information recorded with a "hill-and-dale" vertical motion; such systems were proposed but not adopted, due to their incompatibility with existing phono pickup designs (see below).
		When the records were played, phase-detection circuits in the amplifiers were able to decode the signals into four separate channels.

	Downstairs Records - "Your Steps to Music" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Added to the limitations of the shellac 78 discs was the quality of the automatic record changers of the day, which were quite mechanically challanged (mechanically poor quality), and routinely either broke the fragile 78 discs, chipped off large chunks from the outer edges or gouged out the 'hole' in the center of the disc.
		Also, the RCA engineers designed the new 45 disc records to produce the least amount of distortion, by aligning the recorded tracks across the area of the disc which produced the least tonearm tracking error (thereby reducing the amount of sound distortion).
		The phono cartridge used in all the RCA Victor 45 RPM player models from 1949 thru 1955 are the quote 'crystal' type, which are not working today, because the Rochelle salt crystal was sensitive to heat and humidity - and, the crystal phono cartridges "died" years ago.

	Record and Convert Your LPs/Cassettes to CD
		Record players are special and have extremely low output levels.
		A) For record players with built in headphone jacks, simply connect a cable type B from the headphone jack directly into soundcard’s "Line In".
		C) If you have "Phono Out" on your record player, you’ll need to connect your record player to an amplifier’s "Phono In" with cable type C. This is important because the "Phono" level signal is very low and is different than other CD and tape signal levels.

	Record Collector's Resource: Record Players
		You can get a good cheap record player for about $100, such as the very fine Audio-Technica PL50, available at any Circuit City, and get a really nice Shure stylus for $50, and you're good to go.
		And it is these people that would argue that it's not just the needle, but the record player (and the mixer with the cross fader).
		What we recommend here at RCR is that if you don't want a fancy expensive DJ turntable or the sufficient and cheap Audio-Technica record player, then you get a good used record player that plays 33 1/3, 45, and 78 RPM records, because who knows when you might want to start collecting 78s.

	Currently Manufactured Turntables - audiotools.com.
		The Record player is around 110 years old, it's based on the Grammophone that was invented by Berliner and replaced the Edison cylinder in the market.
		While these are often built into standalone amplifiers it's almost unheard of seeing them on a Mini or a Midi system, so you will either need to have a record player that has a built in preamp or to buy a standalone amplifier (a few manufacturers of those are listed on the Phono Preamps page).
		German maker of high end players, although it has recently been moving in other directions introducing both mid price players and decks that are in or near the reference class (and price range).
