Vinyl records have been making a comeback over the past couple of years, and with them the desire for snazzy new record players has also gone up.<br />This year's CES has already seen the debut of the throwback Technics SL-1200, and now we're also being graced by a new Sony turntable, which also has an alphanumeric jumble for a name, the PS-HX500.<br />But Sony's approach is a little different from its range of direct competitors in this resurgent market the Japanese company is putting the emphasis on converting your beloved vinyl albums into Hi-Res audio files, whether in Sony's own DSD format or in 24-bit WAV files.<br />Sony will provide backup-creating software for both PC and Mac, and all you'll need is a simple USB cable to plug the HX500 into your nearest computer.
