It's a basic model turntable with a built in pre amp . I'm no audiophile I have it connected to my all in one cd/Bluetooth/radio Growing up I always had cassettes and CDs. My dad had records. Question Where can I buy affordable vinyl records online.
I've been downloading and Streaming Free music for almost 17 years. I think that killed the Love for me. I think
Downloading free music has made me not appreciate the music art form.
I want to get back to just sitting and listening to some good music.
I love all genres new and old . Good music is Good Music.

Start with going to a local record spot. Get some Marvin Gaye, Steve wonder vinyl.

Get You some Don Was albums

Fuck a download and cheap audio quality .

Dang, my daughter bought me one of those too. I was looking at the box thinking "Wow....this must be some really new high tech piece of equipment. But it looks just like a record player.":confused:

Lol yes it's just a basic turntable less than $90 I believe.
So far I have D'Angelo Brown Sugar , Maxwell Urban Hang Suite, MJ thriller and Off the Wall. She got the records from FYE but that place is expensive. For my ears the sound is nice. It probably would sound even better with some powered studio speakers.

Thanks for the input. I sure hope it sounds nice because I had to clear a lot of shit off my furniture to make room for it.
 
Just guessing but maybe try Craigslist to see what people are having garage sales and would have to hit the road on weekends searching for vinyl. Also GoodWill or other thrift stores may have them is my guess.
 
Used to be that people were just giving their vinyl away. I got a bunch from family and friends. I was a DJ so I have well over 1000 pieces of vinyl a lot of which I got from a college radio station I worked for and through family. I bought a ton too though. I need to invest in a player because I sold my 1200s. Try a local shop. Depending what city or town you're in you can cop some classic joint. Also for online buying, try Turntablelab.com or even eBay.

Did you ask just one ?
Yes Sir just one
I'm not DJing
One record player has always been the standard to my knowledge unless you are a DJ.
Unless you are referring to the other components lol.. it's 2018
This model has a built in pre amp . All you have to do is plug it into some powered speakers.

We chuckled so hard at your reply
And at you for thinking you needed two turntables to play a record.

Message forums are probably the only place they feel accepted.
