Dust off your vinyl records and enjoy them anew with high-end audio equipment

Vinyl records were the first music sources people could purchase and listen to in the comfort of their own homes. Before records, people were subject to the whims of the radio and had no avenue to choose the music they wanted to enjoy in private. The turntable, popularized in the 1950s, became the primary medium listen to music until the 1980s when the first Sony Walkman hit the music scene. 

Throughout the 2000s, analog sources like vinyl have largely been overshadowed by digital sources like CDs and streaming. But today, vinyl records appear to be making a quiet resurgence. So, if you have a record collection gathering dust in your Morris County, NJ, house, there’s no better time than now to pull it out again. Sophisticated, high-end audio equipment has made it easier than ever to connect a turntable to your audio system and listen to records in high-fidelity sound at home.

An Audiophile’s Paradise Needs More Than Just Hi-Fi Speakers

There’s a lot of overlap between gearheads and audiophiles for a reason. After all, they're both enthusiasts willing to dedicate time and money to get the most out of the things they love. So naturally, there's a lot of similarities between sports cars and hi-fi systems as well. The casual observer is easily distracted by the flashiest bits –the bright color, sleek design, and beautiful roar, be it from an engine or a HiFi speaker.  

However, lifetime enthusiasts in Westchester, NY and beyond know that behind the scenes is where the magic really happens. Your driving experience isn't just about going from 0 to 60 seconds, and your listening experience isn't just about raising the volume up to eleven Spinal Tap style. Instead, designing a top-notch experience is about commitment to quality at each step.

Just like you wouldn't buy a car without sitting in the driver's seat first, we wouldn't expect you to do the same with a hi-fi system. That's why we let you test drive the hi-fi experience in our showroom. But before you visit us, let's take a closer look at what truly makes your favorite recordings shine.
