weinerdog Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hilarious. Way to crop my quote out of context. I guess it's easy to post memes instead of articulating a coherent response. My point was that it's nice to see such an interest in vinyl players. Even if that one is crap maybe it will get the buyers into something better. Or, and this may shock you, maybe some buyers will actually be happy with it! booms528 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to get blown out of shape by a gif that's your deal, homeboy. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilmuse Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 This kickstarter made it to the modern-vinyl site. Apparently it's been funded far beyond their initial goal. How long before there's a physical store? Maybe they can take over vnyl's lease? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plarocks Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 "oh my god! is that your vnyls?" Ok, I love Dire Straits first album.... but why are they looking at the COVER of it, with a DIFFERENT record on the "vertical turntable?" Oh wait, that is just a "conversation piece." The Dire Straits album is playing on the "real" turntable you can't see in the picture. GalacticMelt and vopat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Based on the fact that this will most likely hit $1,000,000 by the end of the week, I am fairly certain the 'vinyl bubble' is alive, well and no-where near bursting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinch Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I didn't even want to jump in here because the fact that this thing is winning the popularity race is making me sad. I fear that saying "remember the good old days when the worst think people bought was a crosley" isn't that distant of a future... Though on the other side, a guy from my neck of the woods made this a few years ago: The decision to go vertical was purely functional. A result of years of trying to eliminate some universal tonearm drawbacks, and the only way physics would allow it was going vertical. One of the best tables I've heard, regardless of cost.

Crabwalker Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Its not that big of a deal. I'm actually really hoping it sounds really good and then a bunch of dudes who cried in here end up wanting want to replace their debut carbon. A man can dream.

davepriz Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Just bought it. I'm just too curious and wouldn't mind a 2nd player for the bedroom if it happens to be decent. I figure I can sell it for at least $400 if it's not my favorite. timsimmons and booms528 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
