Got some old classic rock LP's

[ChadB]

Got some old classic rock LP's yesterday, parents had them stored in the attic. I don't have a turntable, and I'm not sure I want to take a chance on spending money on some 30+ year old piece of audio equipment and have it need work.

Still though, there are some neat albums in the bunch.

If anyone would like to see a list of albums, in case a trade could be in the works, I can post one.

you can still get them new(just turntables....not the cd/record/tape portable things)
or check garage sales..most are pretty cheap since most dont want them now

I've never had much luck with used turntables. Walmart and Target etc have those retro phonographs. I prefer to get the CD and play it through my 1959 Eico HF81 amp. It doesn't look impressive, but the sound is awesome through the Kliptsch loudspeakers. All thrift store finds. This photo isn't staged, this was just a coincidence with ELO, we keep a lot of records just for the album covers and this is what was out this month.

I'll see if I can find a turntable, local via craigslst...I already have a vintage Marantz 2238b and 4 Sansui SP-2000's, so a turntable would fit right in.

Nice setup! I would love an old tube amp for my turntable, but it just runs through a POS Pioneer receiver. Someday I'll find one cheap.

Very cool. My dad has a box of 50 LPs that I want. He even has a Eagles Hotel California unopened too. There is a nice DUAL Turntable too.

I got lucky, a DJ was going digital and selling his stash of Yamaha turntables for 5 balloons each!
I've seen the new USB turntables that you can rip vinyl to your computer and make discs out of em.... 8)
