If you saw my post on r/turntables and ended up here, take a moment to say "Hi" and let us know your current turntable or your dream turntable.

Please add to this with suggestions—especially for different parts of the world.

I posted something in the vinyl community earlier, but someone suggested posting here with some details about the turntable.

I am very ignorant about what players are good, but I saw this 2nd hand and cheap, and the Internet suggested that Denon were a reasonable brand.

So far, sounds good to me! I'd forgotten how warm vinyl sounds, even if the quality isn't fantastic (my records are all a bit scratched) it just sounds good. I wonder if it'd be worth replacing the needle? Is there any good guidelines for when it's time to do that?

Edit: maybe should say something about the rest of my setup. My amp is Cambridge Audio A5 and speakers are Tannoy Mercury M2.5s. I got both as an 18th birthday present 25 years ago, and they've brought me a lot of joy. They were probably very entry level at the time, but they've survived constant use and frequent house parties, and the sound has only gotten better.

I’m currently running a Dynavector DV-20X on my VPI Scout II. Phono preamp is a Jeff Rowland. This combo is quiet and accurate. Think I’m sticking with it for a while.

@turntables happy holidays :vinyl:

Not sure why, but I can't leave a comment on this post. The button turns to spinning arrows and never stop. Everything else works for me.

Anyone else able to comment?

If you want to know how much you can sell your record player for, or if you're trying to find out if one you're considering buying is a good deal, make sure to use the "sold" filter when searching sites like Reverb and eBay. Make sure you search the exact model number.

There are so many listings for turntables that are way overpriced, that the "asking price" doesn't reflect the true value.

I'm glad to see the Vinyl communities have some posts, but I'm a bit sad I don't see any posters from r/turntables here yet. I'm pretty pessimistic about Reddit's future, but the r/turntables community is such a great public service. I'd say let's just all go to vinylengine, but I know it's hard to get an account there sometimes.
