Barry posted:Could have saved yourself some money and not bought the red in the first place, the AT95e on the LP120 is just as good or better. I read a few reviews that recommended the 2M Red slightly over the 95e, especially for it's tracking ability (might be the wrong term, but its ability to ride the warps in a record without skipping). I knew it wasn't a big upgrade, but I didn't know how much I would get into collecting vinyl. I am actually looking at getting a new stylus/cartridge and was wondering if anyone had feedback on the contour design? Or if anyone has any recommendations for a cartridge/stylus that is better suited for DJing/scratching, that would be great.

I have a 95P Paratrace and it sounds great. Definitely not something for DJing/scratching however.

MF DOOM from VMP showed up today, and I'm super impressed with the quality. Definitely a step above pretty much any other new release I've picked up. I was originally going to cancel right away, but now I'm not so sure.

I got an e-mail saying that the expected delivery date for my Mm..Food VMP is 6/19, which is bullshit.

Sometimes I get something that I probably wouldn't get otherwise, but the sales/exclusives they've offered in the meantime make up for it to me.

I actually recieved two copies of that Kanye album from Amazon and the same LP number varied in weight by up to 30 grams. poo poo is hosed. it was enough of a difference that I only weighed them to confirm my suspicions. edit: the sound quality is notably different from lp to lp too.

Probably a pricing error but you can get Leonard Cohen's Songs of Love and Hate for $8 on Amazon right now

Damnit, why do I keep getting emails for records I really want. I spend enough money as it is. Just got an email for Slum Village The Lost Scrolls Vol. 2 and I’m having a hard time not pulling the trigger. https://www.fatbeats.com/products/s..._eid=2c8db2dc6e

some arrivals and pickups. Just traded in like 20 records for a nice chunk of trade-in credit and sold a record on discogs too (**justifying new purchases in my mind**)

Food! We need Food! This is my first record from VMP and I am really impressed with the packaging and record quality.

Worst offender in my collection is definitely Flying Lotus' "You're Dead!" Beautiful album, great gatefold artwork... but that poo poo is literally 40 minutes long it has no damned reason to be on two records.

We were discussing MBDTF a few pages ago and that one is a pretty bad offender. It’s an hour and fifteen minutes pressed on TRIPLE vinyl. So much dead wax.

For some reason I've ended up with multiple 10" box sets of albums. Flipping/changing records after every song is amazing and cool.

I still don’t have Thundercat - Drunk because it is a 4x10”. I did the math a while back and it’s something like 7 minutes per side.

If a record is split up and cut at 45rpm it should theoretically sound better but leaving it at 33.3 is just stupid.

I remember about ten years ago there was a Led Zeppelin box set that came out that was all of the albums on single sided 45 RPM 12 inch discs packaged in a road case. I don't think any other object epitomizes rich baby boomer jerk offs more than that.
