Today's little "hobby from a distance" is looking at vinyls and high end hi-fi equipment I can't afford

A Baku can dream

I hear you. Just picked up the Pro-ject Debut Evo and the S2 Tube Pre-amp. Vinyls are also holding their value, so Iโ€™m curious how rebuilding a collection will be.

I really want to get into the vinyls, but most of them seem to be between 70-170 bucks a record. And then there's the whole player + preamp/amp, and speaker situation ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I'll have to stick to being gobsmacked at a distance
