Are there any good record players that are no more than 100-150 and don't make metal sound like shit?

If a record is recorded digitally then surely playing it on CD is sufficient enough, but CDs are just garbage if the master is analogue.

I think vinyl still has a place for pre-digital music but buying newly recorded music on vinyl is just not the best idea.

Says the fag who can’t drive stick

Thank you. What sort of amp and vinyl should I go for? I'm down to save up. What do you use?

>vinyl
oof meant vinyl player

I'd say an LP60 should cut it if you don't want to make audio equipment a hobby.
otherwise, hunt for vintage shit or cough up more money.

My car was manufactured in 2018. Go drive your shitbox, faggot.

Cruise thrift stores and pawn shops for an old pioneer or vintage whatever, if it still turns maybe just replace the stylus with a quality AT and you're good to go for well under $100

I use a Technics SL-1710, it's a vintage player but they last forever and it's really nice to use.

Newly produced, cheaper players usually have a really inconvinient way of switching between 33 and 45 RPM. I can't stand this as I have a lot of EPs so I had to go vintage. I use Technics SL 1710.

If you don't mind putting in some work to switch between 33 and 45 RPM you can buy a factory new REGA for about 200-300 dollars, those are worthwhile. If you mainly play LPs then this will work great.

I don't know anything about new amps I always get used ones. If you do buy used you can get really nice sounding ones for approx 100-150 bucks, just make sure they are recently served otherwise you'll get tons of static noise.

>drives a ladies car
>calls other user faggot
WEW!

This
Bang and Olufson turntable
Denon amp
Cerwin Vega speakers
Total cost $70

if you're looking for a turntable that makes metal not sound like shit you're gonna be searching for a while

>can’t contribute
>yaps anyway
Never change dumbass

For $150 new, not really.
Second hand, yes, but even the half decent used ones are going up.
Generally, avoid any of the suitcase style, or players with built in speakers. Also, get a table that has an adjustable counterweight and a cartridge mount type that will let you replace or update it later.
Something like the Fluance RT80 for $200 is a good start.

Thank you man

>don't make metal sound like shit

I think yo may be asking too much out of a simple turntable

What's the motivation to buy vinyl, if you are not looking to play pre-CD pressings?

I already have a pretty sizeable record collection but no turntable because I'm retarded. Pretty sure there's already decent discussion as to the appeal to vinyl over digital to answer your question.

imagine getting this mad because you've only got a crosley to play the new tool album on

Seconding the fluance

Imagine being such a retard
I have a Pro-Ject, but thanks anyway. You gonna contribute eventually?

Actually just wanted to hear your reason to buy into the vinyl meme. So I guess it's collecting, which is kind of respectable.

If there is a used records store in your area, check if they have used turntables. There are replacement styli for pretty much any cartridge. Pioneer PL990 looks like shit, but sounds decent with its built in preamp.

I'm just messing with you I have a pro-ject too
I mean if you have a decent turntable then it's probably not the turntable that's the issue rather the stereo setup you're working with

>le sampled waveform is not continuous

That's not how DACs work. People not understanding digital audio leads to idiocy like "HiRes" distribution and the belief a waveform etched into plastic and licked up by a needle is more precise than sampling at a sufficient rate (44.1kHz).

In addition, buying pre-digital music as new pressing will often give you the digital remaster on plastic.

Thanks bro I appreciate it

Well put. We can sample and store audio with Nyquist rates far beyond the audible spectrum limit. Decent enough digital to analog converters will not distort the audio perceptively within the audible band.

Furthermore, bit quantization of the signal only raises the noise floor of the signal, it does not contribute to harmonic distortion. I swear, all these supposed vinyl-philes should learn up on signal processing theory before they go spounting their psuedo-science bullshit at people.

All being said, I like mixing vinyl, its fun, and I like the ceremony of listening. There is inherent value in this process, but I don't delude myself into believing vinyl sounds better just to justify spending thousands of dollars in outdated technology.

I don’t think I’m the user you think I am, I have a denon amp and psb speakers and everything sounds just fine.

I have one of those Emerson all in one systems that has a tape deck CD player and turntable built into it. Not to mention an AM\FM radio. For the most part it does the job. But one thing I've noticed abut it is that for some reason I find that it sounds a lot better when I play an older record on it and that whenever I put on a newer record regardless of genre, I have to turn it way up just to get a remotely decent sound.

>Automatic

Dunno never used it

Snarky little faggot
