| Your greatest high end audio purchase!!! probably not high-end but my Marantz 2252B helped me restart my journey. Bought it for $150 in 2014 and sold for $850 7 years later to help me upgrade/get a newer amp. Loved it every minute and still miss it... | |

| Vinyl is back for good and that’s exciting @lewm I have no doubt we have different standards :) and I sure can appreciate your taste, collection and budget. Yes, I shop at goodwill, shopgoodwill.com, ebay, discogs, used record stores in very ethnic neighborhoods with thick metal bars o... | |
| Vinyl is back for good and that’s exciting used vinyl prices have no bottom. They have become so cheap lately, with lots sold in so many places that $10 seems wild now. Maybe it will change, I am not sure what the life of a vinyl is, but it seems that there are too many copies out there an... |
