Pawn Shop System

[RUNN1NG EMOT10N]

So I inherited a box of records from my grandma and borrowed some from my dad, but couldn't wait to save up for high end equipment, so I picked up this $40 beauty at a local pawn shop (yeah, it's made by Sears. Once I move into my dorm and get my full computer/gaming setup put together with this I will update this



These are the actual speakers that came with it, but I'm borrowing some of my dad's Pioneers for now.

As long as you like it is all that matters. Peace and goodwill.

That's a pretty cool looking setup. One word of warning, make sure the needle on the turntable isn't worn and that the tracking pressure isn't too great. It would be a shame to have your records chewed up.

Warning out of the way, I do enjoy the vintage aesthetic, hope it serves you well!

You use something like this to check the tracking force: Amazon.com: Shure SFG-2 Stylus Tracking Force Gauge: Musical Instruments

As for needle wear, frankly I don't know how to convey it.
