I'm trying to find out which TT I had in the '70s. I think, it was similar to Lenco but lower price. Any suggestions?

Like a rabid dog I just can't let go of that bone ! Here's yet another iteration of my NEC system from the early 90's. Edited by JD - February 02 2023 at 12:30 |

Here's the last set up (late 90's) before I landed on the one I have now. A Marantz integrated amp after the NEC bought the farm. Edited by JD - February 02 2023 at 12:31 |

AKG K240 600 ohm headphones? I got those, but not the fancy stereo.

^I'm on my second pair. Bought my first ones around 1979-80. Love them I used them on the road and in the studio. Edited by JD - January 21 2023 at 19:46 |

No suggestions? I think, the name was similar to Lenco too.

No problem.....actually not that many considering. Back around mid 80s around 1200 LPs. Then when we started to move around the country for different jobs I lost probably 2/3 due to "lost" boxes. Which I chalked up to theft, of course moving companies back then all they did was reimburse you for lost boxes. Who know they may been lost in all the shuffle. But I doubt it..... I took a position to only buy what I really wanted to listen to rather than become a "collector" again.......Right now I sit around 800 LPs. And about 300 CDs, which I got rid of a lot of CDs in the late 90's early 00's they just sounded like krapp and I never listened to them anyways. I'm much happier with my collection now.

Well you can't turn the clock back, but you can use eBay, Discogs and crate digging at record stores and you can find LPs from 70's. Problem is you might end up buying several copies to find the better condition and sounding ones. It's hard to tell sound quality from just looking. Some stores I go to have listening stations to test them.

But I'm sure, she could learn it. She has very good sense and fondness of technical stuff, and some fondness of music too. |

All of you guys have more than me. I'm sitting on 133 now, but I also have some years catching up. I'm in my early 30s, so I hope to have 1,000 soon!

Already in the '90s, I bought on vinyl all the albums from my '70s-collection I wanted to have again and much more. They were very cheap to buy at that time, and many of them as entirely new.

I'd do a lot of thinking when buying vinyl today, because especially the used ones have become very expensive, and not least if they have to be sent.

So many records......no time to listen!! Part of me is in this mood, when I'm buying now. Back in the day I bought to have the record and spun it maybe 2-3x a year.....Today I buy because I plan to spin it often, if not I leave it in the bin. 1,000 records x 45min = 45,000 min ÷ 60 min = 750 hours ÷ 3 hrs (time per day to listen, not realistic) = 250 days to listen to your whole collection once. I don't spin records everyday....... Just a thought

Well, I have something like 320 LPs, and that, together with 130 CDs, is about what I need to be happy - even I'm a big music aficionado and not so little of a "collector".
