I bought a used copy of Astral Weeks today. Van was the man.

I used to have a cheap Sony LP player that broke down. Finally upgraded to an Audio Technica AT-LP5. It’s still well below what others are paying, but I’ve been really happy with it so far. Rich sound, that works perfectly with my stereo. Asked for advice a while back, and the Rega Planar 3 does look amazing.

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’ve ordered Yield, the only Pearl Jam album up through s/t that I was missing. Happy to find it at Pearljam.com

My wife bought herself vinyl for the first time the other day. I got home yesterday and the package was at the door with her name on it and my heart just about melted right out of my goddamn body.

Absolutely, that’s cool. Did you like the music she bought?

Good looking list....except possibly John Denver. I've got a bunch of his albums that I got in a bulk purchase currently sitting under the house collecting dust, and possibly mold

Charlie Parker - The Complete Savoy and Dial Recordings. Pretty phenomenal sound for being 70 years old.

And pre-ordered this...

Been spinning Jon Spencer Blues Explosion's No Wace Dance Party. Lots of grooves. Hard to believe these guys have been doing it for as long as they have.

Grado SR60i. I have had the 80i's for the past 3 years. I really don't think anything can touch them for the price.

I've had an active price watch for these $70 headphones for 4 and a half years now. Today I got them for $9.99
