[quote=Fallflowers]I have a Stanton T92. My collection isn't that big just yet but I just bought the Neutral Milk Hotel box set! Can't wait. I saw them yesterday in concert! So good[/quote]
Stanton T92 is a great little entry level TT

[quote=acuppa]I own a few, because I like displaying the sleeve artwork, but vinyl as a hobby is a little too expensive for my blood. Love that shelf, btw.[/quote]

Yeah, when I started I thought I could keep it relatively cheap by buying from 2nd hand markets and such, this did not work out as planned.

[quote=NoNsensical]I have a record player I bought second hand from Zia and one vinyl so far, Baroness's Yellow and Green. I'm not sure what model it is, but I want more vinyls in the future.[/quote]

It's a slippery slope my friend, I started off with 4 vinyls that one of my roommates left me, purchased a $100 system to play it. Since then I have spent about $6k on vinyls and equipment. But it's worth every penny.

That's just dorky and hilariously outdated enough to actually be kinda cool.
