forgetting where I was, my first thought was, "someone needs to tell the vinyl thread."

I received a copy of Donuts today, that I completely forgot I ordered when it was super cheap on amazon a while back, so that's a pleasant surprise

What does everyone think of this altp-120 as an entry level player for someone looking to get into the hobby? Budget is 300 usd.

Edit: 300 budget for the player. Undecided on budget for speaker(s)

That’s what I use. Tech moan has a good guide on building a stereo system on the cheap that worked for me at the start of the pandemic. I did buy the speakers and turntable new, but with patience and eBay watching I was able to put together a decent little system for under 300.

Thanks do you have a link to the guide?

Also thanks to posters above

It’s a four part series

Might be a little dated in terms of specific suggestions but a good watch

Finally got my copy of Speak Now taylor's version. I'll report back later on if it's the cursed version or not*

*it's cursed becausea bunch of them accidentally had Happy Land: A Compendium of Electronic Music from the British Isles 1992-1996 (Vol 1) pressed on them

edit:plain old regular taylor's version

I have so much I haven't listened to. I really should buy less things impulsively.

In a non impulsive purchase, I pre-ordered the signed edition of the new Green Lung record.

There’s a lot of jazz from Japan that should get vinyl reissues because of the time they came out. I’m specifically mad about Hiromi’s Spiral. It wants to be on a turntable.

Ooh I just discovered her and ended up buying a few cds cheap on eBay.

Cds are great but at the very least I can rip them and throw them in my ssd modded ipod.

There’s a couple of things but I don’t know if it’s enough to get me out on Black Friday. Enon believo is an album I haven’t thought about in a very long time, but I remember liking it.

sound of vinyl is having another 0 dollar just pay shipping sale

https://thesoundofvinyl.us/collecti...,4XNHTA,1ATC8,1

shipping seems to be more than the last go round though, so kind of kills it for me

Only vinyl I got for Christmas was Tim-Let it Bleed edition, but it rules so no complaints.
