Any musos out there?

Hiss crackle pop maybe but at least the hisses, crackles and pops sound good!

I just wish I'd redisovered the joys of the blackstuff before.... I tried one of those crappy USB turntables and wasn't impressed - it sounded dreadful. Now I've got a "real" turntable I'm becoming the vinyl evangelist!

I'll give the ones recommended a try and give some feedback.

The only one I've got experience with is Hard To Find Records, but they deal mostly with electronic music and I don't think thats what you're after

HTFR are good and been going a long time. I have bought a fair few bits of vinyl from Ebay and if the quality is not as advertised then send it back. Another good market place is http://www.discogs.com/ - lots of individual collectors selling.

Thanks for the google idea....never thought of that

Is there anyone who has ACTUALLY used a supplier and can say "yes, I have used company A and they are really good"....

I've tried Ebay

but the condition of the one's I've received have been not quite as advertised!

I'm really looking for a dedicated supplier that maybe someone has used and can vouch for....

(I know that sounds totally alien and a bit arse about face to some but I've just spent ££££££££££s on a new turntable, amp and speakers and I'm now totally converted!

Me too. I buy records from jumble sales, record markets, second hand shops, car boot sales, anywhere I can find them. Still looking for some of the old indie stuff from the 80's though.

My mate collects vinyl, gets a lot from eBay.

Can anyone recommend a decent online supplier of vinyl? I'm obviously talking about records here, not interesting bedtime attire...

No doubt my question will confuse anyone born after about 1980!

I've ordered current stuff from Amazon and found them to be good value, but I'm now trying to replace some of my older CDs with the vinyl releases (I know that sounds totally alien and a bit arse about face to some but I've just spent ££££££££££s on a new turntable, amp and speakers and I'm now totally converted!

I've just had the vinyl version of A New Tide by Gomez delivered and it sounds a gazillion times better than the CD!

Old school FTW!!!!

For anyone interested:

Pro-Ject RPM 6.1SB Turntable
Naim NAIT Express Amp
Focal Chorus 714V Floorstanders

And I was only going to buy an Ipod Dock.........
