You might consider a digital Numark TTUSB from Musiciansfriend.com http://xrl.in/3qnz
a nice little player that has good sound for the price, you can find deals on these if you want.
(I know you'll know where to look)
If you are patient, then you s…
I'd say Crosleys are probably not the best idea.
Not sure how cheaply you can get a Technics these days but the one I'm still using cost just a hundred and something almost twenty years ago.
Torrance is off the beaten path, but there is a store called Record Recycler that is freeway adjacent. Dirt fucking cheap used records.
Another great one is Bagatelle records in Long Beach.
These are the kind of places where you have to do some di…
i don't even eat meat and i can still appreciate how amazing a record store/barbecue place is...i'll definitely check out all of those places. thanks for the recommendations howie and switch blade.
hank i went to headline last week and it was aweso…
thanks! it sounds like technics is the best but they are out of my price range...i'll keep checking ebay for used ones...also, does anyone know anything about crosley? they're more affordable and pretty nice looking, but will they destroy my records…
Try Radiation Records in Fullerton I now thats not L.A but its worth the trip. Overflowing with vinyl new and old at good prices. Im doing a record swap on Nov. 7th if ya wanna stop by heres the info
Record Swap @ The Montebello Library 1550 w Beve…
my first was a roadstar dead cheap and plays good only like 50 quid
I have a Technics player that's lasted me nearly 20 years now. Don't remember exactly what it cost but it was probably somewhere between $100-150.
Can't agree more that Technics are definitely the way to go if you can afford them. Stanton do a couple of pretty reasonable (if a little less classy) alternatives which would save you a small wedge but it’s worth splashing out if you can. SL-1200s…
there's also a new place up the block from wacko on hollywood blvd near vermont called vacation i think, but i haven't been there plus there's a record store/barbecue place in echo park somewhere! ask around...
I wouldn't recommend buying a cheap player. I think Technics' SL-1200 series are good, but actually a new model is expensive, so... Mine is SL-1200MK3D and is very good!
