BTW, as a watch collector I have not worn my watches after getting the Shinola Runwell, most comfortable and easiest to read watch I have ever owned.Aha! So *somebody* knows the difference! :)
Turntables hit the mainstream
Just saw an ad in an upscale newspaper that Neiman-Marcus is selling the Shinola turntable for about $2500 or so. It makes me wonder whether they have salespeople trained to explain to a prospective buyer that it’s not a self-contained unit and they’ll need a cartridge, phono preamp and hifi system to make it work. But I do think it’s a good start. Then again, if they carry Shinola, why not Wilson, Goldmund, etc? There's a lot of profit in those products and stores like NM attract a weathy crowd. Seems like a natural pairing.

I live in the metro Detroit area, and my family got me a Shinola Brakeman watch for Father's Day a few years ago. Fantastic product, and I've been very happy with it. I'm hopeful that they'll get me a Runwell turntable for this coming Father's Day, but there is a bit of a price difference (about $700 for the watch and about $2500 for the turntable). I agree the price seems high for what you get, but it is sexy and kinda local. All that said, I'll most likely be keeping my current rig. |
lpretiring I want to know how long do I have to wait for reel to reel to begin it's comeback?It's already underway. http://www.unitedhomeproducts.com https://horchhouse.com/project-r2r/ Of course it's not likely to enjoy a resurgence equal to that of the LP. |
