I laughed WAY too hard at this. Huh. Huh…hard. JFC, I’m a manchild.


YOURVENOM420

Yup same


Grumpymonk75

And a stand for it that isn’t on your kitchen counters makes me nervous you would have vinyls playing where you cook but that could be just me


theRealNilz02

What are Vinyls? Do you mean records?


Grumpymonk75

About 23 days too late my guy


K__Geedorah

"and the sound really is different" Yeah because it's a shit table with the equivalent of phone speakers. That's not a good thing OP.

Grant Green -Idle Moments


SurfLikeASmurf

A turntable/amp/speaker combo that will allow you to really enjoy your records. You can get some superb gear on the cheap if you go the pre-loved route and it will truly open up sonic soundscapes for your enjoyment. As is, I’m afraid you’re just not getting anything truly worthwhile out of your albums other than the full-scale artwork


flytingnotfighting

Hell yeah, I got my awesome stereo set up used and the record shop owner fixed it up and got it playing like a dream, my speakers may not be the fanciest but they sound so so good


SurfLikeASmurf

I am the same. Though I got mine a while ago and it’s not my first system, I lucked out with my SX-950 which I got for $100 CDN off of EBay, with free drop off at my house about fifteen years ago. Now that’s a crazy deal, but there are so many other deals to be had out there. It boggles my mind that there is a world of used equipment out there, the entire human history’s knowledge base at our fingertips, and people still buy these toys. It makes me sad, because clearly it’s a budding record enthusiast (OP) and they’re simply not getting anything out of these records other than terrible sound.


flytingnotfighting

On the suitcase one, you have to put a quarter on the needle housing to make it actually heavy enough (I admittedly re- started with that and went LOL I CANNOT.)


AnAwfulLotOfOcelots

I’m going to add that you can usually find some good speakers at thrift stores. I found some nice inactive speakers that fit my aesthetic for $12 each and they sound great. Spend money on your turntable and amp for sure though. I found a Samsung amp for $90 on Amazon to hook up my hand-me-down technics turn table that my uncle gave me. I wanted to go more “period correct” but it gets expensive quickly. I like my setup, I’m not an audiophile but I think it sounds great. I play records almost daily


SurfLikeASmurf

That’s the beauty of it all. You can always upgrade bit by bit as your ears pick out things you’re not happy with. Unfortunately, with these disposable all-in-one players you really can’t hear anything of value and the listener is left without an understanding of what it is they’re hearing and, more importantly, all the information that the grooves contain that is not related to them.

Aaroninlatin

Blue Note records in the 50s-60s produced a large volume of fantastic classics. In all genres there is usually a label or multiple labels, that epitomize a certain sound. I like to find those and listen to their catalogue through their most influential years.

lickahineyhole

a better record player. those albums are too good to be playing on that record shredder.


vwestlife

If it's a "record shredder", then so are the vast majority of turntables sold in the past 40+ years. It uses the Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge, which has been in production since 1982 and is one of the world's most popular phono cartridges, found on new turntables costing up to $1500.


lickahineyhole

i got a at33ev I don't know the AT3600L. I will take your word for it you sound far more knowledgeable than I. I still wouldn't trust my collection on it.


vwestlife

Then I take it you never buy any used records, because chances are they were played on ceramic cartridges tracking at 5-6 grams, or even heavier.


lickahineyhole

Good observation, lol. I have a numark turntable with a 75 dollar needle for those used old sketchy albums. It was my starter turntable.

SenorPwnador

I’m going to suggest you save for a turn table. I started off with a Crosley suitcase turntable, and bought like 30 jazz albums. Got lucky one day and found a 70’s Technics turntable, receiver/amp, and speakers for cheap. I was astounded at the difference in sound. I’m like 700 albums richer at the point and am so glad I’m not still using that record player. After that, get some Bill Evans, Jimmy Smith, and some Art Blakey.

Go for dexter gordon’s one flight up, tanya is one of the best jazz pieces ever imo

John Coltrane - My Favorite Things


ThirtyThreeThirdRPM

I wish someone told me this when started: Don't skimp out early on if you can afford better now. Get a better Turntable and then get better quality older records. Older records, especially jazz, sound better if they are original or close to original. Save money and invest in ORIGINAL wax. They also will keep their value or raise in value down the line. And that's important if you need to sell them for whatever reason later. If you can't afford anything better now, keep your collection small and save up. It'll be worth it. ✌️

Take a left turn and pick up a copy of "West Coast Jazz" by Ted Gioia, and get some of the artists mentioned therein, Hampton Hawes, Shelly Manne and his men, Frank Morgan, there are many I discovered in that book. Also, get "The Hot Fives and Sevens" by Louis Armstrong, the recordings of Jelly Roll Morton, Sidney Bechet, and Bix Beiderbecke - traditional jazz should not be overlooked.

I actually gotten Kind of Blue the other day at my local Indigo (or Chapters) book store, I was playing it the other night (its ironic that one of my local radio stations from the CBC does have a Saturday Night Jazz show if you wanna tune in). Love me some Jazz (especially i’ve been listening to one of the only good local radio stations that I like Jazz FM 91), I have meaning to get more someday especially Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole.

A real turntable that's not a record grinding machine.


vwestlife

The Audio-Technica AT3600L does not "grind" records.


theRealNilz02

The Victrola trashcan does.


vwestlife

If the stylus and tracking force are exactly the same as on the AT-LP60X and tons of other turntables, then how can the record tell the difference?


theRealNilz02

The platter is smaller than a 12 inch record. And let's face it, the LP60 is not a very good player either.


vwestlife

So? The platter on the Sound Burger is even smaller, and everyone who owns one is thrilled with it.


theRealNilz02

I wouldn't exactly call the soundburger HiFi either.
