now i can finally listen to my PJ vinyl whoohooo :D i actually already owned some vinyl i never had a chance to listen to before now, because i didn't have it on cd or mp3.
i always thought i only wanted a turn-table for my PJ collection, but now that i've heard what it sounds like i definitely want to start collecting other LP's as well!

aaaaaaaahhhh i'm so excited.... :D

    That looks pretty bad ass. Is it brand new? What's the make and model of it. All my turntables are shot to shit and I'm in need of a new one for Santa to bring me.

    On topic, the gift is most bodacious, congrats! I'm tempted to invest myself.

    How do you throw away a poster? Well you move out of your parents house, have them decide to store your things since you're gone, use garbage bags as storage devices, then a few months later they see garbage bags and think there's garbage in them, and throw them out without looking. I think there were only two posters in there, and the other was also a PJ poster (Eddie back to back with Mike I think).

    oooh, pretty!! congrats!

    you're gonna love how everything sounds on vinyl, not just pj. i've been a record collector for years, and there's just no beating that sound that you can only get from a record. enjoy!

    Sweet! You should play Binaural and Vitalogy immediately (or buy them if you don't have them and listen)! Looks retro-cool :cool:

    if you don't have it, buy the riot act vinyl. This is one of my favorites (after no code and vitalogy)...

    hey that's cool, happy b-day to you too!! :D

    and No Code sure does sound awesome... i listened to it again today. :)

    but i'm sure you understand i can't afford to buy Benaroya what with the prices it's going for on ebay... so in light of my birthday i think it's only fair if you give me yours.... ;);)

    cool...but how does it sound? I bought a cheap player and it sounds like shit, there's no bass. I remember Vinyl as a warm sound, but this is like a tin!!

    can someone explain why the sound on the site and the category names are in english yet all the pages are in dutch (I think)?

    i can tell you the sound is a lot better than i expected from a built-in speaker system. but if you want better bass sound, there's a sub woofer thingy on the back, like this.
    so i'm pretty satisfied with how it sounds, but i do think if i ever have any money to burn i'll get myself a good set of sub woofers, just so i can hear Jeff better... ;)

    i believe it's a Dutch company, but i don't understand why the website isn't available in English either, but i read they ship world-wide.... i guess you could always email them with questions! :)

    I get mine out through Home-Cinema amp, with subwoofer..still crap, the sub has nothing to pick up (there's only a stereo plug, no specific sub one..)
