Welcome bloodnarfer!! I have heard of that table and the company story. It does look like a nice entry level table and the price is right for those just starting out......Be aware that the vinyl bug will hit hard and you will get upgradeitus LOL....Enjoy the table (when u get it) and have fun searching the vinyl bins, that is half the fun!
 
Cheers!

I've already got the bug I think!  I've been scouring vinyl bins and buying tons of stuff even though I don't have the table yet!

^ Good looking start for sure!! I have not had luck finding H to He, those VdGG are underground albums around these parts and do not show up much, when they do they get swiped up pretty quick.

luckily, my favorite record store is run by a couple guys that are huge VDGG and Yes fanboys so they seem to be pretty well stocked! They were playing TFTO the first time I walked in!

Yeah, I pre-ordered it last April.  The digital download version of the album came available in September, and the vinyl copies appeared in November.  They just haven't gotten around to mailing them all out yet.  It'll come eventually.
