Smug git alert I kept all mine, and amazingly all the new wave 2 tone etc is still in really god nick. I think thanks to my parents letting me playt records as a kid, but teaching me how to handle them . . . . I've always bought records and still do . . . Hoovered up loads in the early 90's...

I spaffed some money last year after 20 years with the same gear, and have now gone MC on my new Rega, with their Phono stage, it is quite something. I was amazed. I have some Audio technica fake 1210's in the man cave which could do with better cartridge/stylus, there are plenty of good...

I bought a half decent tape deck around '99-2000, its had little use, about 3 years ago I used a focusrite audio interface to record them all as WAV files . . . Along with 2 singles and a digitally recorded 16T reel demo, went to a studio and remixed/mastered everything . . .I was pleasantly...

#' makes mental note and rides home faster than normal to check copy . . .:lolol: I think SKip Bifferty is my most valuable record.

Most of the after market Rega plintshs are birch ply and veneer I do have a chunk of Tasmanian Huon Pine which is just about big enougfh and 40mm thick . . . . Also a slab of solid Iroko worksurface . . . . . both over 15 years old so stable! speakers are probably best made from good quality...

Exactly what I did . . .I've dumped a load of CD's as well. I have a few hundred to sell and about 70-80 vinyl albums to clear as well . . . . just sitting in the corner for the time being waiting for me to do somehging with them In other news, I have been thinking about rebuilding my planar 3...

we have 28 tracks . . .12 studio . . . early stuff was kinks meets early Floyd power pop/psych . . . . later was Roxy/Faces/Ziggy esque . . . well, to my ears anyway! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IceE7r3bKPY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_Gfw_38FNg

I've go...... . . . no no Shh Zef Yes, yes, that's really silly! I don't think A&S would have stocked that in the stoner rack circa 1993

My brother had that as well. very cool. this is the silliest record I have . . . I had been smoking when I bought it.

On a slight tangent, I have been using a focusrite audio interface this week to rerecord a load of old cassette tapes and digitise, have also had a 1/2" 16 track tape digituised and for remasterings and hopefully release an album from my band in the mid 90's, which fell to bits after 2 singles...

It was Mrs Zef suggestion . . . . fire place is in the other room win/win!

I need this . . . . in my front room http://loud-clear.co.uk/glasgow/installation/record-store-guy/

I've just sold some stuff and reinvested . . . . I'd suggest going semi vintage, ie 80's/90's far cheaper than new and just as good. . . . if not better, and nowhere near as expensive as old vintage or new cyrus 2 amp £150 ish . . . . I have a pair of PMC DB1 bookshelf speakers ( they make...

Discogs can be an expensive evening in! This is an early 70's reissue . . . . Would love an original, but theyre aninvestment and a half. YOu won't find a better cover than ART.

Bounce, biggest investment in plastic I’ve made. A good album too **** knows why my photos are upside down.

I was going to guess at Ortofon, a neighbour DJ's a fair bit and has similar on his decks 1BTN late night bigness . . . I thought they looked frail but they happily survived us using them for a big street party all dayer, and we were all very refreshed by midnight

I love twiddling with hi fi stuff, moving things around, finding a different sound . . . . I'm always amazed how different things sound in different rooms. As for vinyl, I was scared off picture discs as a kid when I bought house of fun by madness, played dreadfully, eccentric grooves and...

Monkey music is sorely missed.

:lolol: Fair point, well made. I have an Otis Redding album that went all fruity . . . I did manage to iron it flat after some years!

P3 is the deck to beat for that budget. I've had cyrus 2/PSX for years, also Arcam Apha 8 and P75 power amp, with AE109 floorstanders or B&W 601S3 Currently eying up PMC twenty2-22's But 'found' some tannoy monitor golds in my step fathers loft . . . . Am now back into the valve amp idea ...
