Let me try this again. The Finial now ELPJ Laser TT is completely analog. There is no digital anything in the signal path. I suggest you read one of the White papers about the design.

As I said "You don't know what you're talking about". Plus, the OP was talking about LP playback not recording.

The ELPJ laser turntable has three models available (with noise reduction and vacuum cleaning attachments extra):[2]
  • LT-1LRC - US$12,000 - 33, 45 - 7", 10", 12"
  • LT-1XRC - US$15,300 - 33, 45, 78 - 7", 10", 12"
  • LT-2XRC - US$16,400 - 33, 45, 78 - 7", 8", 9", 10", 11", 12"
The laser pickup uses five beams—one on each channel to track the sides of the groove, one on each channel to pick up the sound (just below the tracking beams), and a fifth to track the surface of the record and keep the pickup at a constant height, which allows for record thickness and warping.
The lasers focus on a section of the groove above the level where a conventional stylus will have traveled, and below the typical depth of surface scratches, giving the possibility of like-new reproduction even from worn or scratched records.
The pickup output is analogue: the signal path is never digitized.
Using a laser pickup eliminates many problems associated with physical styli: record wear, horizontal tracking angle error, turntable rumble, leveling adjustment inaccuracies, inner groove distortion, channel-balance error, stereo crosstalk, anti-skating compensation, acoustic feedback, skipping, locked-groove problems, problems tracking warped, cracked, or eccentric records and cartridge hum pickup.
The laser turntable is extraordinarily sensitive to record cleanliness and will play exactly what it sees—a speck of dirt is treated as if it were part of the record surface.
When an LP is inserted into the tray drawer and the drawer closed, the turntable reads the surface of the LP, displaying the number of tracks. Users can then program which tracks to play, or repeat, much as a CD player operates.
The laser diode has a typical life of 10,000 hours of use, compared to the 500 hours of playback recommended for a diamond stylus or 50 hours for a sapphire one.
Versions of the ELPJ laser turntable will play back analogue disc records at any speed from 30 to 90 RPM (+/- 0.1 RPM) and of any size from 7 to 12 inches (180 to 300 mm).
The record must be black; coloured, transparent or translucent records cannot be played[3].
ELP state that they had sold 1300 units by 2007[2]
