Trying to make a little more room in my shelves.... do you guys post links to sales in here or is that a no-no? I have some Every Time I Die records on eBay if anyone is interested. Also a copy of the Coachella pressing of Puscifer's V Is For Vagina
I guess if you just search you will find them, haha
feel free to post your discogs/ebay store, just don't spam the thread with it.
I like that shelf that has most of your records on it. Where'd you get it, if you remember?
Nice! They look great. I especially like that you can flip through the records :) My current shelving only lets me look at the spines.I do! Both pieces were custom made by a cabinet maker friend of mine. It's made out of real wood so it's incredibly sturdy, but also because of that incredibly heavy, especially when full of records.

Oddly enough, switching the red/white cables on my turn table switched the speaker which was outputting sound.
Not sure if this is the right place, but I'm having issues with my system.
For some reason, sound randomly only comes from one of my speakers. By random, I mean I can use my system for a week without issue, then one day without moving or touching anything of substance, sound will only come from one speaker. For example, yesterday I was listening to In Rainbows. Today, I turn on my receiver, put on In Rainbows, and sound is only coming from the right speaker.
I pulled out the speaker wires and made sure they were properly inserted on both the speakers and the receiver, but the issue persisted. Oddly enough, switching the red/white cables on my turn table switched the speaker which was outputting sound.
Does anyone have any idea of what I can do to fix this?
Equipment:
- RT-81
- Sony STRDH190
- Bose 501 Series IV Speakers
I know you said not bookshelf speakers but I've been continuously surprised with the frequency response of theseLooking for some fairly reasonable floor speakers for my AT-LP120. I have some half decent bookshelf ones, but I'm looking for something more robust with more sound. Any recommendations?
I had a similar problem with my system and it was my stylus head/assembly not not properly connecting to the arm. As in sometimes it'd come loose and I'd hear audio out of one speaker. I took it off, cleaned it out and screwed it back on securely and haven't had problems since.
It doesn't sound like it's your speakers or your wiring, as you mention changing the wires outputted to different speakers. It sounds more like your only getting the L or R signal, for whatever reason, which sounds more like a turntable/stylus thi
I got one of my copies of Thrice - Palms today. I've ordered the red oxblood version as Kings Road Merch completely screwed up with my package. I won't get that until sometime next week now, apparently.
Anyway, the Oxblood version is very nice. It sounds wonderful. Oh, and I absolutely love this album after just a day. It is incredible! I've liked and followed and supported this band for over 10 years, and I have a 20 year discography of albums that influenced my life in more ways than I can count. They delivered on everything I hoped they would do with this album. It's perfect, as far as I'm concerned
It's definitely a divisive album among the fans, but I get that.Don't feel quite the same way, but I love Thrice. They've been my favourite band since Illusion of Safety. Palms is probably my least favourite album they've put out (including Identity Crisis), but it still has some affecting songs - like Beyond the Pines, Just Breathe + Only Us.
They're coming back down under for the first time in 10 years, so looking forward to seeing them live; though I'm a little disappointed it will be coming off a record that I'm not too high on.
that's why you need two decks and bounce between albums for maximum listening percentages.The turntable for my daughter's 16th birthday is a big hit. It's Bluetooth, so she can listen via her AirPods or portable speaker. She's been to the record store and her two favorite albums are The Beatles Hey Jude and an Elvis Presley's greatest hits, and my copy of Prince 1999 and The Police albums were appropriated into her collection (for some reason, she did not want my Weird Al or Steve Martin comedy albums). It's fun to watch her, but I have little nostalgia for much of the experience. I prefer pushing a button and hearing hours of music. I'd forgotten how short LPs can be. Even my wife asked, "What happened to the music?" after 4 songs.
most of my records are dance music, mostly 2 songs per side. great to dj with but not so much if you want to just put something onThe turntable for my daughter's 16th birthday is a big hit.

I just joined the vinyl club, one of my first buys was scientist rids the world of the evil curse of the vampires. I'll update with my collection soon. Awesome buys.
Thanks. Why's this version so cheap?
No idea, just take advantage of it while you can and pray it doesn't get cancelled.
True, was looking to see what else they might have but ended up just grabbing it for $8.19 total shipped. Thanks for the heads up!No idea, just take advantage of it while you can and pray it doesn't get cancelled.
I got a shipping notice for this. It's still listed at $5 too so I guess it wasn't a mistake.
Just in case anyone's interested (FnordChan, maybe)?
New volume of Kosmicher Läufer just went up : https://kosmischerlaufer.bandcamp.com/
I feel like I saw an academic paper on Soviet prog a while back but I can't remember if that group was mentioned.
Seeing collections like this always makes me jealous. My collection is just one big pile of chaos....

Found an abstract. It was on David Tukhmanov and his album from 1975 On My Memory's Wave. My field generally doesn't publish conference papers online but you could check out Google scholar for Alexandra Grabarchuk to see if she's published anything else on the subject if you're curious.If you could track down a link to that paper and share it with us, that would be amazing.

I'm a musicologist. My research area is blues-rock from the late 60s and early 70s.Thanks for tracking the abstract down! I found the album on Discogs. Dig the cover of the export edition:
Briefly listening to it the album is all over the place stylistically; I'm curious to learn more about what sparked the paper, so I'll see what I can track down from the abstract author. Also, if you dont mind my asking, what is your field?
Putting together a vinyl setup for GF's kid. Is an Audio Technica LP60/Edifier R1280T a good start? Didn't want anything complex.
It'll work but definitely look out for whether you've got a bad one. The QC of the lp60 seems to be all over the place and if you get unlucky you might run into having a player that doesn't handle the heavier LPs that well (there's quite a few stories of skipping).
There's not really a better choice for the price though unless you go up to a uturn orbit which starts at $130 and requires an extra preamp to work and also costs extra for some quality of life add ons like a cue to carefully drop the needle for you.
When I saw this I just had to have these. Thanks for the tip!By the way, if anyone is interested in actual Soviet era prog rock, be sure to check out the first two albums from Zodiac: Disco Alliance (1980) and Music in the Universe (1982). Behold!
If those covers don't send you running for Discogs, I don't know what could!
