Vinyl Records

What is it about vinyl records that continues to attract music fans of all ages, even now, in the age of digital music? It might be the nostalgia that these albums inspire within us. Many of our favorite vintage vinyl records feature creative art on the jackets that brings us back to the first time we listened to a favorite band. Even new artists often deliver special-edition vinyl LPs with unique art that make these records perfect for collectors of any genre. Then, there’s the way a record feels when you pick it up and hold it in your hand. It’s the kind of experience that cannot be replicated in a digital format. Even the smell of a new vinyl album that hits you when you open the cover on a new record must be experienced first-hand to fully appreciate. And, of course, there’s the sound. While digital music is ideal for on-the-go convenience, vinyl records deliver a rich, deep quality that not only fills your home with outstanding audio, but also creates a sonic environment that a listener can feel. Plus, when you drop the needle on a turntable you can sit back and relax rather than looking through your cell phone for your music. This way, you won't become distracted by texts and email. So, what are the best vinyl records for you? You might prefer vintage records, or maybe you lean toward newer music. There’s no wrong answer when it comes to music. Whatever you choose, Best Buy has everything you need to make the experience happen.

So, what’s the best way to bring the vinyl music experience into your home? First, consider an all-in-one turntable. These products feature built-in speakers to make it easy to get started in the world of vinyl records. Just bring one home, plug it in and start enjoying your favorite tunes, from rock vinyl records, to classical, to jazz, or even modern pop records. However, if you already have a home theater system, or a receiver with floor speakers that deliver the sound you want, you can connect a new record player to your existing system. There are even Bluetooth-ready turntable options that let you connect to wireless speakers in any room of the house. For many people, a wireless system is the ideal way to connect high-tech digital products with amazing vinyl sound. Before making your purchase, don’t forget that maintenance is key to your experience. Whether you’re bringing home new-release vinyl records or vintage albums, you’ll want to keep them all sounding their best. Add turntable cleaning accessories to make sure that the music stays pure and true. All that’s left is to get the records spinning so you can enjoy the music you love.
