Unfortunately nothing, I don't have a turntable yet. The wife says I have to wait until July to get one. I'm protesting and buying records anyway. I stack them up on top of my CD player hoping the vinyl sound will trickle in somehow.
I finally made up my mind and bought a VPI Scout earlier this week, now I can play some of those LPs I've been staring at for months.

Tonight it is James Taylor, Sweet Baby James and That's Why I'm Here.
Ah yes...Riviera Paradise on vinyl, now we're talking! Soon as I read that post I had to put it on the 'table. One of my all time favorites for sure.
Pink Floyd's The Wall, 30th Anniversary Edition. I just picked it up today. On a side note the guy at the store said a Metallica box set is coming out soon on vinyl...sweet!
I'm pulling out all my favorites; SRV, Diana Krall, Mark Knopfler, John Mayer, Metallica, Dave Brubeck, Paul Desmond, Led Zepplin and anything else I can find. I picked up a new Lehmann Cube SE two weeks ago and got my Dynavector 17d2mkII this week...its a good day!!!
Just picked up two new LPs at my favorite record shop, Best of Sam Cooke and Hendrix Electric Lady Land...sealed...for $5 eaach.
Last night it was Johnny Cash "American IV".

I had just made numerous tweaks to the 'table and was ready to hear how things would work out...holy sh*t was it great!! That was the best my system has sounded to date so the tweaks certainly worked, this is one amazing LP too. I am now on a mission to find the first three of the series.
Rocking with SRV tonight. Got the Pure Pleasure Records 180g re-issue of Couldn't Stand the Weather while I was at CES this year and finally got around to playing it tonight. This album is one of my all time favorites and this release is the best I've heard yet.
