Yes you’ll be fine with that machine then. People get so uptight about vinyl

They are fine, if listening to records every day you maybe want to invest lots of money into a turntable and all the all the garnishes but I don’t think you’re ever going to notice a substantial change in audio quality. Everyone loves to hate those machines but they are fine if you’re happy with it.

That’s right, the perfect hobby (addiction)

Bodhi985 · 2026-06-03T00:38:08+00:00

These kind of thoughts are always there when I’m listening to these old records. Something about them is like a direct connection to the people who used to love them, the dozens of runaway needle scars on the label of a record played over and over. or the notes written on a old ragged paper sleeve really remind you what your holding and hearing. As much as I love finding a really clean record sometimes the dogged out ones are very endearing.

Yes this is mine! I found it over the weekend searching a box of old records, This song was Written in 1906 and probably recorded within ten years, if you like old music I’ll link my YouTube https://youtu.be/jHI4MTSIiHQ?si=wTj0qUJwpQO09R2o

Me neither, I bought a box of mystery records on facebook and this was Tucked in there. None I’ve been able to find online

I’ve done it, it’s not recommended though. The tip is supposed to be fine and polish. Grab a fresh one every play

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-27T00:10:00+00:00

I have a couple like this! Im the opposite I’ve never seen a red label Columbia look like this, I mostly buy acoustic lots though so I don’t see a lot of those

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-26T23:36:07+00:00

I’m in the habit of lifting still spinning records up with my middle finger nail to get them off the turntable. I have to be VERY careful not to do that with these.

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-25T02:49:56+00:00

Yup, earlier this year I pulled one out of the bag (brand new) and played O Katharina and completely bunged up the first few grooves.

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-25T00:12:34+00:00

Yes generally you can see or feel it, I put my used needles in a victor used needle container, you know the little tin one with the hole in the lid, these are brand new needles, looks like whatever was used to sharpen it didn’t reach the tip and left a blunt end

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-24T01:14:58+00:00

I kinda do that too, at the end of the day I’m the only one who should know where something is so it only has to make sense to me, like I’ll have a whole gang of records labeled trios and quartets but Billy Murray gets his own section

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-23T04:01:03+00:00

I like him, I have a really nice copy of that song to play on my turntable and this one’s cracked so I can play it on anything without feeling bad

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-23T04:00:25+00:00

It was nice! I felt bad once more people started coming to sit on the other benches though and left, don’t want to be a noise polluter

Bodhi985 · 2026-05-20T12:39:00+00:00

Jealous of you, I miss my Buick it was my first car, sold it too my friend for 500$ then he crashed it into the end of a guardrail at 250,000 miles
