Wow. Good find.

I feel like a douche for posting in this thread for selling my vinyl collection a few years ago (divorce is expensive) but I'm going to start rebuilding my vinyl collection soon.

It's annoying because after 5-6 sings you have to walk over and flip or exchange the record.

That said my dad has a legit jukebox from many decades ago - that is where I keep my PJ holiday singles and it is pretty fun to listen on vinyl.

I like it that you have to flip the record. It prevents you from listening passively.

I was super excited about the used section yesterday. Got a slightly used copy of The Antlers' new record and a copy of DCFC's "Plans," each for $15. My fiancee was waiting in the car, so I had to stop at "N."

Modest mouse reissues are coming!

Lonesome crowded west and long drive.

Including bonus tracks such as the greatest ever modest mouse sony, edit the sad parts.

If you ever get a Barnes and Noble giftcard from a well-meaning aunt or a clueless boss, don't sleep on it! I was able to get 6 LPs on barnesandnoble.com for $15 each:

Damien Jurado - St. Bartlett
Damien Jurado - Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Sun
Damien Jurado - Maraqopa
Damien Jurado - Caught in the Trees
My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
Norfolk & Western - Unsung Colony

They're going to take 2 weeks to process and ship, but it'll be worth it.

Ever find one of your all-time favorite albums for really cheap? Like, $15 cheaper than you've ever seen it? And then you put it on the platter and you're all like ahhhhhhh (that's the noise of satisfaction):

Modest mouse vinyl from Newbury comics. Get em while they're hot!

I was just at Newbury Comics yesterday. Someday, the entire store will just be Newbury Comics limited-edition colored records and nothing else.

I'm in the market for some new headphones specifically for listening to vinyl. Can anyone recommend some good cans around the $100-$150 mark?

Caved and ordered the clear Benji

And theres no real headphones specially for vinyl, although I'm surprised some snake-oil salesmen hasn't come up with that though. Just look a nice headphones that fit your listening needs, so I take it they will be used more at home, so maybe look at Grados? I'm sure Chud or someone could point you in the right direction.

Cheers for the reply

I realise there's no 'made for vinyl' headphones, but as you say, would not be surprised if a pair is marketed as such someday. I just thought I'd scope out the preferences of some fellow black-circle spinners. Will look into Grados, was also going to check out some Audio Technica ATH-M40/50s.

Another question for those in the know - how important is the quality of an amp if a turntable already has a built-in pre-amp? I have an Audio Technica LP120-USB that I'm moving to a hifi-less bedroom (away from inquisitive little hands )

A little more in price than what you're aiming for but these are fucking great, and cheaper than when I got mine.
