Vinyl II
Okay last night was pretty sucessful in the ways of vinyl.
First off, we found 3.5 boxes of JUST RECORDS. Svveet! Of course, half are my dad's and therefore classical, but still! that leaes 1.25 boxes of ROCK 'N' ROLL!
And this isn't some lame "Oops I did it again" Rock, or Metallica, This is GOOD. Eric Clapton, Beatles, 60's, 70's and 80's rock! Of course, I'll probably never open 1/4 of them (BeeJees), and listen to some Once (Monkees) but still. Wh00t!
Also, We found the old preamp for our basement sound system, which is now *ahem* Mine *ahem* . I can't really use it though. If I hooked it up to my speakers, no more speakers.
Now All that's missing is the Record Player! and thats what I want fr christmas, so; Bingo!
I am going to buy a near-mint Abbey Road and frame it to put on my wall. And maybe put Rubber Soul up too.
Apparently I didn't look hard enough for a record player. The Beogram 8000-9400 was what I was looking for. tangental Arm! Basically the arm is straight up and down, so it damages the record less and looks plain cool! There is the added bonus of sounding better, but in a sound system, who needs that?
The Modern day equivallent is the Technics SL-1210 M5G Which is the DJ standard. It has a normal Arm, but it is more modern day.
Actually, that is designed for DJing... Like scratching. As cool as the Beatles are, that is cruelty to scratch with a Beatles album.
maybe I can find a cheaper alternative...
