Vinyl Records

I’ve always loved music. In 2018 I took that love to a whole new level when I entered the world of vinyl records. Its true what they say: Vinyl just sounds better. It really does, and it’s not just the sound, it’s the whole experience. In my case, take a new record for example; that’s a unique and special experience that I really enjoy. I like listening to a new record while I set aside new inner and outer protective sleeves for the album and carefully transfer any special record labeling from the new record’s packaging to the new outer sleeve. Then I sit and flip through the album art work, follow along with any lyrics that the artist may have included, and generally enjoy the relaxing act of playing the record. If you’re interested, my equipment is listed below.
