They run one of these articles every 6 months or so...and they all lack
credibility with lines like this leading into a segment on resurgence of
vinyl.

There IS a resurgence in vinyl. One would have to be really out of the
loop to not have noticed it. There are more 'tables, arms and cartridges
on the market today than at any time since the advent of the CD (~1983).
And the people in this business MUST be selling this equipment to
SOMEONE. After all, they keep introducing new models and brands at all
price points (except the very bottom - the $100 Japanese direct-drive
table with the linear-tracking arm is a thing of the past), but every
other price-point, all the way up to $100,000 turntables and $15,000
phono cartridges seem amply represented.
