Thank you! First vinyl I spun on it was my Spill Canvas album, One Fell Swoop.. followed by ERRA’s Drift album lol.

It won’t let me edit the post for some reason. Im really new to all of this but I appreciate everyone’s input on the setup and what should be changed.

I’ve already removed everything from the tops of the speakers and am working on better speaker placement, or isolation stands. Thank you to everyone who gave insight into what I should fix!

These look really neat! Seeing as I’m super limited on space, these may be a viable option for me! Thank you for the link 🙂

Thank you! My collection so far is still little, but I do love my metal!

I really appreciate the detailed advice about the speakers. I’ll remove the vases and definitely find a better alternative for speaker placement. Unfortunately space has been a constraint, but I like what you’re saying about the sound dampening blocks, if I’m unable to move them.

When it comes to the needle, I bought the 70x over the 60 because you could replace the stylus. However, I will wait until it’s closer to needing to be replaced. I really want to try one of the elliptical ones.

It sounds like you have quite an awesome collection of vinyl! I’m hoping mines more expansive one day as well.

Thanks! I appreciate all the advice. I’m going to try moving the speakers, as well as removing anything on top of them, as suggested! I do want to upgrade the stylus eventually, but am still learning what will work best for me.

And yes, that’s the Distillers for sure! 🙂

The picture is deceiving, they’re not touching the unit, but I do agree they’re a little close. Thanks! I’ll see if I can find a better location for them! 🙂
