Do you have a receiver ?

 

i have nothing at all haha

 

I’m currently on mobile but R/vinyl used to have a 101 on set ups on the sidebar. Can’t find it currently.

 

You’ll probably need a preamp as well. I haven’t looked into the specs of the TT’s we are talking about but most require one because they wouldnt be built in.

 

Those are just some--feel free to read around. There is a lot of stuff out there and it's not too bad to digest since so many people are getting into vinyl as of late.

this isn't bad--some of the same picks you've seen here.


If you're curious on the pre-amp and what it does:

And for powered speakers vs standard (Passive):

A U-Turn Custom with a built-in pre-amp (and cue lever) and powered speakers was the way I chose to go, and I 100% recommend it.

 

I did this same thing a couple years ago with no regrets.

 

alright went with this! I’m excited and broke

Does this seem like a scam? It’s gotta be right? The LP120 goes for 150 bucks more on every other site.

I'm excited for you!

Dashboard Confessional continue this year’s DC20 20th anniversary celebration by announcing The Early Days, a vinyl reissue series spotlighting the albums and EPs that defined the band's formative years, and cemented singer/songwriter Chris Carrabba as one of the most vital voices that would reshape the musical landscape for years to come. The series kicks off with the first-ever vinyl pressing of 2001’s The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most, set for release on July 31st, 2020. A long-awaited vinyl re-release of 2000’s The Swiss Army Romance as well as a first-time pressing of 2002’s MTV Unplugged 2.0 will also follow later this year, and all will be available in multiple collectible, limited edition variants in addition to a non-limited edition run of standard black vinyl.

Two of the limited edition color vinyl versions of Places, in addition to black vinyl, are now available for pre-order HERE. The splatter color vinyl can be purchased only via the DashboardConfessional.com online store, while the cloudy orange and clear vinyl is available only via independent record stores, a community that has long-supported Dashboard Confessional. A yellow and blue vinyl, limited to only 1,000 copies, can be found exclusively at VinylMePlease.com, beginning tomorrow, July 10th.

The band has also announced an upcoming partnership with Mondo to release three EPs for the very first time on vinyl this year: 2001’s So Impossible, 2002’s Summers Kiss, and a newly created Spider-Man 2 EP. Mondo is an expanding enterprise with a passionate love of film, art, music and pop culture, best known for creating limited-edition posters, vinyl soundtracks, premium collectibles and games. Based in Austin, Texas, the team collaborates with an international network of talented artists and creators to produce the highest quality products inspired by licensed properties and original IPs. More details about the limited edition EPs will be announced later this year.

 

FUCKKKK. I've spent hundreds of dollars on vinyl during this lockdown, was hoping to slow down for the rest of the year. But nope, I need all three of those Dashboard records!

 

Just ordered Places. The email says there was a bunch of color variants, but all I saw on the site was the splatter lp. Happy to finally have this!

 

Can't fucking waaaaait to finally have these early DC albums on vinyl! Immediately ordered Places, and I will immediately order SAR and MTV Unplugged as soon as they come available.

FINALLYYYYYYYY

 

RIP my wallet in these trying times based on the amount of vinyl preorders I've been doing.

 

oh wow lol yeah we’re going the fuck in

 

Damn I jumped on the splatter cuz it's all I saw, but that white & orange one looks pretty sweet!

 

Bumpie. Would anybody else jump on this or am I the only one even thinking about it lol

 

Thread on Steve Hoffman forums is skeptical to say the least.

 

Yeah! Where were all these other variants before I ordered it?! haha oh well.

 

Appreciate that, assuming SH is a vinyl forum?

 

I assumed it was BS but who knows

 

It was in the press release I posted in here!
