Vinyl Thread [ARCHIVED] • Page 1056

depends on your budget. while i currently have my AT-LP120XBT-USB connected to my soundbar/surround system (VIZIO M51ax-J6, just to simplify sound output in my living room), i used to use some Kanto YU4 speakers that came bundled with the original LP120 when i bought it from TurntableLab (i now have them on my desk as computer speakers). by themselves, those run around $300, and deliver really nice sound. if you're looking for smaller or cheaper, the YU2s run about $230. for even cheaper options, i know a lot of people also like Edifier. my sister has her LP60X connected to some and they sound good.

 

I have these for my setup. I think they are pretty great for the price point.

If you're curious about what people are purchasing in actual record stores across the country, RSD's website is very helpful: RECORD STORE TOP SELLERS CHART | RECORD STORE DAY

Has week-by-week stats. Interesting stuff!

Lumineers from vermont

 

I'm shocked to see Liam Gallagher's new album at #11. Didn't think people in the US cared enough about his solo career.
Also, Slayer at #2? Was that a recent re-press or something?

 

I was just thinking, has there been any Drive Thru releases this year at all? I feel like the last one announced were the Early November triple album and the EPs. But that was 4 months ago.

 

Probably want to get that stuff out before announcing more stuff. Likely don't want their socials bombarded with "TEN UPDATE?!?; NFG UPDATE?!?!?!?"

 

I love Vermont but it's the season of the sticks...

 

Amazon mail day.

 

Jumped on that WATT 30% off. I grow wary of what this thread is doing to me, what it's making me become...

 

Thornhill collection complete (until LP3)

 

Oh wow did neither of those ship out yet? That explains it

 

TEN was always set for Spring 2024, so they have time to meet that still. Don't remember what NFG was.

 

NFG (and RX) were pushed backed to late April.

 

Really stoked about the WATT repress, especially with it being the same variant. That was the record I bought as a birthday gift for a friend last year that UMG waited weeks to tell me was out of stock after claiming it was shipped. Placed a new order today and got the shipping noti within hours!

 

New Bartees Strange EP is up for pre-order on Bandcamp and here on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CW932ZND/?tag=absolutepunk-20

 

Yeah, that site is crazy fast with their shipping and has great communication with order updates.
