We are facing up to the fact that we really ought to digitise our collection of LPs (200-300 discs), to go ultimately on to CD. Should we invest in a turntable which can link up directly to a PC, or route the sound via our existing hifi (which is reasonable quality Arcam – nearly wrote IRCAM!)? As the collection isn’t huge and we aren’t hifi freaks we don’t want a huge outlay on equipment to do this.

I am no expert but a good turntable seems a must. What software will you use? How long will CDs remain as current technology; are they not on their way out?
We have two turntables by Sansui and Dual, both good ones. Software is one of the things to be determined! We are likely to use another digital format as well as CD.
