One might think that the rise in vinyl sales would call for a corresponding rise in turntables. As it turns out, however, about half of vinyl LP buyers don't own a record player, according to a recent study.

Luminate's "Top Entertainment Trends for 2023" report found that of the 3,900 US-based respondents surveyed, "50% of consumers who have bought vinyl in the past 12 months own a record player, compared to 15% among music listeners overall." So -- feel free to double-check our math here -- that would indicate that 50% of vinyl buyers over the past year have no way to play those records at home.
