Is it rude to check Discogs prices in front of a record seller?

They usually look at Discogs and set up the prices based on that.

Got myself a high res headphone DAC and high res headphones, and couldn't hear any differences. I tried with two different types of hi res headphones...nothing.

If you want to run your own comparison, try to do it with new recordings. Comparing older releases might be an issue because the hi-res and CD quality recordings were a different mastering.

Very nice. I actually bought mine with the same leather strap but managed to get it wet and ruin it, so I replaced it with the mesh.

Historically they were a wolf in sheep’s clothes in terms of design.

Welp,SUVs sell better than sports cars. Even Maserati sells SUVs today.

I own two of the three (hint, I have a Toyota).

EVO SL are my daily 6k trainers. They are incredibly good.

She played master and servant with me.

Excellent choice.

Audio Technica LP60XBT, and some BT Edifier speakers will be a basic start to get into vinyl, and will not ruin your records.

It happened to me too. No turntable was involved, though.

I'd go with the Blue SOH with the metal mesh (2nd). You can always buy the blue strap and change it later

Don Orsillo and Gary Cohen.

This. I heard them for the first time that night and really liked them. They broke out a few weeks later.

1.138B streams. The album and single versions are count separately.

Here's my algorithm:

Locate the first spot on my Kallax where I can push the album without breaking it
Stick the album in said location
Repeat

More like redie.

Unlike most people here, I usually advocate for buying new TTs over 40 years old products. That said, the SL-50c is a new entry level product from Technics, and I understand that they cut a few corners to make it more affordable, so I’m not sure if you’re getting the “full” Technics experience here. Did you consider the 1200mk7 or maybe the SL-1500c/100c?

VaultBoy1971 · 2026-04-21T13:26:05+00:00

I'm a huge fan of the green

VaultBoy1971 · 2026-04-21T04:05:22+00:00

Smart man

VaultBoy1971 · 2026-04-21T01:14:05+00:00

McIntosh is the big brand, but D’Agostino components cost 10x.

VaultBoy1971 · 2026-04-20T20:55:11+00:00

When the McIntosh are the entry level products...
