I just have a simple one from Audio Techinica and a small amp. Does the trick. Does the trick with some good speakers.
Thank you for the tip. I've got a decent system from Marantz with B&W speakers.
I just upgraded mine to the Rega Planar 3 and i am in love.
I had the Audio Technica LP120 with an upgraded needle and cartridge that served me very well.

I don't have the space, nor do I want to spend the money on a top end system. My little setup is perfect for my space.

Hoping not to jinx this, but I'm actually surprised these haven't been delayed.

Well you are a pathetic little shit and should feel shame.
Just kidding.
But, space? Turntables are all basically the same size!

I meant for the amp/speakers. I don't know how much the turntable cost, it was a wedding gift.

Strat, you ever figure out the deal with your player?

Yea. It was fine. Record was just too warped. My fault on that. I think it’s a little more sensitive to warped records. I’ve replaced a couple.

Should've kept my mouth shut--my Amazon order was delayed ever-so-slightly until 11/15.

My Binaural still says "arriving 11/10." Save You and WWS, which I ordered much later, still say "delivery estimate 11/10."
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I ordered from Amazon here in the UK, and all three albums still say "arriving November 10th".

My order on Sound Stage Direct is "processing". Aren't these out tomorrow?

The only thing that has shipped to me from Amazon is the Save You 45. Binaural says "shipping soon" and "arriving by 8pm" tomorrow. That's the same thing that happened to me with Let's Play Two.

Ordered all from Amazon. It looks like Avocado and Ten re-re have both shipped, with Riot Act and Binaural "Shipping soon" to arrive tomorrow.

Amazon UK now says "preparing for despatch", and the money has gone out of my account. Looking good!

One of the online stores here was saying that they'd be available today (this morning it said 'Later today') - now it's saying early December

The new digital master of "Avocado" is even more compressed and distorted than the old master, and actually has audible clipping. I seriously doubt this band will ever learn their lesson.
