I have heard many people complaining about the fact that a digital audio file will never produce the same sound as a vinyl. Maybe those complaining about such thing were (and still are) old-fashioned, yearning about a technology that will never be seen again in the market. But come on, the MP3 player comes with its advantages as well! Think about portability, for example!

Here’s a general truth: most people use an iPod these days in order to listen to their favorites tracks of all times, but those who are part of the old-school still keep their music on an LP. Unfortunately, everything’s digital these days.




And the Denon DP-200USB was created because you might need a help to convert your vinyl tracks into MP3s. And let me tell you that you won’t have to trouble yourself very much. You must put on the disc, then insert the USB flash drive (as you can see in the picture), into the front of the device, and, well, you’re ready to go. Just push the start and the record buttons and the conversion is almost ready. By the end of a couple of minutes, you’ll be having an entire album stored on a flash drive which can be used, of course, by plugging it into your personal computer.



Another great thing about this automatic record player is the fact that it comes with Trans Music Manager, which is a great help if the user wants “to obtain track numbers and information”. To be more precise, the Trans Music Manager is able to detect those pauses that you are familiar with, between tracks. In addition, if you’re using a PC you can also have access to the Gracenote music ID server, where you can find the track information that you need.

Other features that the DP-200USB comes equipped with are an integrated phono equalizer, so that the music can be listened to on a radio cassette player, for example, its arm can be adjusted, the aluminum diecast turntable, the MM cartridge.

If you feel like timidly stepping into the new digital era, then you can go grab the automatic record player from Denon UK website for $300, which is available in two color versions: black and silver.
