That site is wrong. The original US LP is on black vinyl and has Ernie on the back cover. The pink vinyl was a reissue.

well there you go. guess you can't trust everything you see on the internet.

COD > HALO

Mods, please murder this thread if this has been posted already

I live in Ann Arbor and there are 3 good ones here (Wazoo, Encore, and Underground Sounds). Don't know of any in Ferndale or Royal Oak but there are a couple good ones in Dearborn (Dearborn Music, Stormy Records).

I second all this info.

There used to be 2 good ones in the Royal Oak area, butb they both shut down around the same time over a year ago. There is a good one in Southfield too, but I heard a rumor that one also either moved or shut down....

PJs Records in Ann Arbor is also a great store to find older stuff. haven't been there in a while, but always packed to the ceiling with just about everything.

Dishwasher.

backed.

where's juan on this topic?

Dunno if you're just looking to trade, but that LP was repressed in the last year or so. It's still available to buy if you search.

those packages on his personal site are ridic. thx a ton for the amazon links, because looks like you can't even buy the single 12" or 10" via his own webstore (yet). and the cheapest package to get vinyl is $65!

Traffic Street Records says they have this for purchase if you're still looking.

HOW DARE YOU NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD A 400 DOLLAR TURNTABLE! YOU'RE A DISGRACE TO VINYL COLLECTING!

okay now that the yelling is out of the way...

if you just want to listen to your records, buy whatever you want. Salvation Army stores, thrift stores, used electronic stores all have cheap turntables that you can use with little to no problem. But be aware that an inferior/older cartridge can hurt your records over time! Sometimes they are an all in one unit. This is great for newbies, and what I used when i first started getting into collecting. It's got the table, receiver, amp, output and usually a tape deck or cd player all in the same unit. you can get these for under 100 bucks usually. but beware, make sure you TEST the product before you buy it. take a 7" and a 12" to the store and ask to test it. this way you can tell if you have a bad needle, bad wiring, bad sound, bad alignment, bad whatever.

if you're looking to spend a little more, and already have a phono receiver you can swing over to best buy, or any big electronics website and search for turntables. You can find a new Sony, JVC, ION (which ION are you looking to buy/saving for?) for about 100 bucks, but they're very base models. GuitarCenter.com also has a bunch, but you might have to wade through a lot of strictly DJ tables.

hope this helps! let us know how it goes.

Since this is page one of the new turntable thread, i figure we should pool as much info as we can on to page one.

i'll start with my recommendations.

1. your vinyl collection means the world to you, so treat it right with a quality system to listen to it on. this doesn't mean your old Technics DJ table is bad (well not TOTALLY bad), just that if you are serious about your hobby, you should try to save up for some better components.

2. the #1 question people will have is "what table should i buy?" which is why they clicked here in the first place. These are, for the most part, the top 2 recommended tables:

Rega P1

Price: 375 - 400

Pro-Ject Debut III

Price: 375 - 400

Do your research when it comes to a new table. There are differences between these two, so you should find the one that suits you best.

Needles and cartridges are a very in depth product. Many Starter tables will come with a cartridge already installed, but if you want to upgrade I'd say check out www.needledoctor.com. This site is one of, if not the best to browse audiophile equipment and the prices are generally fair and a good gauge of how much other places might charge.

3. Another question we see a lot is "i plugged everything in, but the sound is low, crackling, and almost inaudible."

this means your receiver doesn't have a phono pre-amp. Some people see the AUX setting and assume it's good for vinyl. Incorrect! unless the receiver says phono input, and has a phono setting, you will need to purchase a pre-amp (or new receiver) to get the most of from your turntable. and to make the sound come out right.

that's all that comes to mind now, other guys feel free to post info you feel needs to be on page one. maybe we can get the bulk of questions answered before people have to click past page 3.

chad says good luck!

has to do with your cartridge alignment.

this. and sound generally degrades a little towards the inside of a record. that can't be helped.

...did i really pre-order this back in may?

literally thought the same thing yesterday. I wasn't sure until I checked my paypal receipt.

date:

yeah getting verified is no biggie. and in my experience it makes people feel a little safer when buying/selling via ebay with a verified account.

paid money to own this.

also got one of those cheap Me First 7's, a free sticker and free button.
