I have no trouble finding LP's and prefer shopping for them over cd's. Used record stores are everywhere, and there are also mail order companies. "Audiophile" quality new pressings and collector stuff is expensive, but older albums are $5-$15 for good condition. There are more and more progressive (regressive?) bands recording new music to vinyl. You will want a vaccuum cleaner or VPI or Nitty Gritty. P3 is a good table, but the VPI Jr. can be upgraded for better sound if you get hooked on vinyl (many people do). Paul
Contemplating vinyl, How hard is it to get LPs?
This may sound lame, but I've been "digital only" now
for 10 years. I was thinking about getting a Rega
Planar 3 and going back. So as stupid as it may
sound, I wanted to get a feeling for how hard it
would be to start an LP collection of 70s/80s
music?
Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Journey, Don Henley,
Aerosmith, Boston.. These are the bands I would
be looking for. Are LPs readily Mail Orderable
and or is it a scavenger hunt kind of process?
How much do LPs cost these days? Are they pressing
new music on LP?
Thanks
Tom
