Alright Vinyl GAF, I need your opinion.

I'm finally done with my setup, but my room is running out of floor space. So I've decided to build UP.

I'm currently using this sub.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000092TT0/?tag=neogaf0e-20

I purchased some cheap shelving from Amazon, and built three to store my vinyl in. My question is, is the weight of the vinyl going to be too much for the sub? It's a 50 pound beast, and feels sturdy, but I want to avoid this setup if it's a bad idea.

 

[Citizen_Insane]

cross post from electronic music gaf but yeah, just moved into my new place today and can finally have everything setup!
Not managed to test it sound wise due to it being gone midnight but that can wait till morning!

What kind of speakers are those? Seems like everyone has them.

Holy shit, Twin Peaks soundtracks to be reissued on vinyl!

Bought some sweet records today:

That's a remastered reissue of Danse Macabre with 2 vinyl records, two CDs, one DVD and a nice photo book.

 

[LyleLanley]

Anyone have any good ideas for things I can use a bookend to keep my records upright on a bookshelf?

It's a bad idea to stack anything on top of a speaker/sub. They create vibration and should be isolated at all times. Not saying a sub would generate enough vibration to knock off an Expedit full of tunes, but you never know. Could hurt the sub.

Still, the Expedit is a great storage solution!

And I'm digging the DJ setup Johnlenham, very nice!

Yeah thats the ones. Actives and no sub but still pretty weighty. I wanrted them for Djing more than anything else.

Nice choices in there, I have Enough Thunder framed and got that Miles Davis record a few weeks ago. I keep meaning to snap one of my Kid Cudi legit album and my Kendrick Lamar Section 80 bootleg!

Hit up the record fair being held today in my town. So stoked about getting all acts of Joe's Garage. On Act I right now and it is amazing on vinyl and not a single pop so far on my copy.

Wow just now realized it's Death Waltz who is doing it! Really hope Jay Shaw does the cover plus we get a poster out of it!

Sufjan Stevens is releasing a new album with Son Lux and Serengeti in March on special gold in clear vinyl and there's only like 70 copies left, so jump on it if you're interested!

€ 18 shipping. Yeah, ain´t gonna happen.

:\ That's quite high.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

I might post this here as I took the pic already for elsewhere, some REATARDS LP's aka my favorite band

Bedroom Disasters LP, Live LP, Not Fucked Enough first pressing with rare insert and later pressing, GUFU first press and promo poster, Teenage Hate OG with insert and 2012 reissue (limited) clear

 

[BaronLundi]

Ha ha ha. Yeah I wanted to get one, but no. When shipping costs more than what you ship something is going wrong.

There's a cooler edition on Joyful Noise Recordings' website limited to 450. It's the VIP edition so it's an extra $5 for the subscription. IDK about shipping because I'm on mobile.

I really dig his solo stuff. Just ordered the represses of his 08 singles collection and watch me fall.

Thanks for the heads-up man.

Shipping is $25.

*sigh*

Ugh, that's ridiculous.

 

[BaronLundi]

Should have added that it's for France. I'd suspect it's about the same for all yurop though.

 

[LyleLanley]

Ugh, that's ridiculous.

I ordered a copy and shipping to NY was $5.

 

[LyleLanley]

I both love and hate that Discogs keeps track of how much your collection is worth.

It does? Where at?

 

[LyleLanley]

Look in your collection, there should be an icon in the top right that looks like a bar graph.

Yep, ordered two of them. One for myself and one for Sai-kun. So excited, love the stuff I've heard so far.

 

[amnesiac]

Definitely Maybe vinyl reissue coming May 19... YES.

 

[gutterboy44]

Think I have to return my Pro-ject Carbon Debut. The left channel keeps dropping out the majority of times I turn it on. Disconnecting and reconnecting the cable fixes it and it never drops out while playing. I have tried two different cables, no luck. Anyone ever have this issue?

So what's your most valuable item then?

 

[BeeDog]

Completely forgot about the stat view on Discogs... now I'm sad/somewhat proud.

A glow in the dark repress of Frances the Mute by The Mars Volta.

Apparently my red vinyl copy of The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me went up a lot in price.

Yowza!

Spoiler

$200

 

[Johnlenham]

XX, The - Fiction (Young Turks - YT096) 7", Single, Ltd, Han

Goes for $120! my gf bought it for me for £7 over a R S Records t shirt.

 

[CRS]

Going by the Medium listing, most expensive LP is Captain Murphy's "Duality" going for $200 with Gorillaz' "Demon Days" going for $170 right behind it.

I would never sell either of them.

<3

 

[amnesiac]

My most (median) expensive single LP is the Urban Outfitters exclusive marbled edition of Father John Misty's Fear Fun. I probably should've got the black one since my colored one is pretty noisy.

So if you don't go to a record store on RSD you're pretty much screwed, right? I need that Spiritualized box set but I can't make it out that day.

For something like that, yeah. Might be some wanks selling it on ebay the day before for inflated prices if you're desperate though.

 

[omgkitty]

Uh oh. LCD Soundsystem box set??

 

[butzopower]

Picked these up the other day.

Guided by Voices - Motivational Jumpsuit
