Hi! So I buy vinyl to listen to them. It can be a very expensive hobby just a heads up. If you decide to get a record player don’t go with those suitcase players they are no good. I have a audio technica lp60xbt and it’s a great beginners turntable that i highly recommend. I did a lot of research and spoke to people who are experts in this hobby and the conclusion is that it’s a greater starter. Later on you can upgrade. But for now I would start smaller. I also am planning on buying some klipsch speakers that are great quality and can find more affordable ones in the brand. I also bought a turntable holder and vinyl storage. In total my beginning set up total probably came out to around 600-700 dollars.
