Interested in getting into the vinyl game and putting together a modest collection, but I admittedly know next to nothing about it. New? Used? Brands? I almost bought a little suitcase looking Crosley one at Urban Outfitters a few weeks back but a friend told me they're crap. I don't really need anything fancy, I'd just like to own and listen to some of my favorite albums on vinyl.

Spicewood would have been all over this one. Here's some threads where he dropped some serious knowledge.

Bought my wife a pro-ject debut carbon for her birthday two years ago, we love it.

Thanks for those links!

Pilmer, I googled that particular one and it's a bit pricier than I was wanting to go. Is a record player for less than $100 not realistic?

Thanks for the recommendations!
