Holy crap! I finally found someone that actually recommends an affordable turntable! Finally somebody that understands that most people aren't gonna pull $2000 out of their arse for their first turntable setup. Thank you!
Yeah no honestly it pisses me off how every video I watch is someone saying something along the lines of: Our first product is a cheap, affordable, entry level and budget friendly turn table that will only set you back around 800$
Good to see someone mention modern convenience! It's 2023 not 1970 and the newbies tend to be young not middle aged, and want plug and play. Great advise!!!
Thanks for this video! I'm only 18 and have never touched a record player before, so I was feeling pretty overwhelmed being bombarded with conflicting info regarding what I NEED and DON'T NEED. I just want to listen to my classical music collection.
@@valiant__holland8910must feel great to finally play all of those! I’m 17 and I’m more into cassettes but i just wanted to learn more about vinyl just in case i get into that too lol
Don’t be afraid to go the used route either! Many years ago I picked up a Numark TT-1700 belt-drive turntable from a pawnshop. It’s a DJ model - fully manual with adjustable anti-skate and counterweight. I stuck on a Grado cartridge and got an external Art phono preamp, and a few anti-slip mats. Total investment was about $200, and it sounds superb. Belt-drive is the way to go if you’re concerned about sound quality and reducing motor hum.
👆🏻 good advice here, esp if you have a repair shop nearby or are handy fixing things … i’ve dropped a lot on hi-fi setups before - but my most recent one is very budget & it sounds great - a free Gemini XL-100 turntable (semi-auto belt drive) w/a nice AT cartridge, a vintage Luxman R-115 (paid $200), and nearly free Bose 301 series 4 speakers (traded for them) …
no one mentioning he says the video will only be as long as it takes to drink the coffee and in the very next shot he has a new even bigger cup of coffee haha. I love it.
Excellent recommendation, and definitely avoid those suitcase players at all costs. You are right in saying that the Project isn't an entry level player. It's one that more seasoned vinyl heads should aspire to
Suggest the pro-ject primary or the elemental turntables , come pre loaded with a half decent ortofon cart, and is kind of entry level/ early audiophile quality. Upgrade later with an acrylic platter when funds/ambition allows-enjoy
@Glen Lockyer I think most people miss the Pro-Ject T1 series turntables in their recommendations. I know it's a bit past entry-level but the Pro-Ject T1 turntables are quite good for the price. The project debut carbon (evo) is so popular but it's stealing the spotlight from the T1.
Omg! I bought for my first vinyl a Victrola suitcase record player and I love it , but the speakers are not enough. I need an extra speaker . Please advise
Owner of LP60X here and I can say you can’t go wrong with it. The sound is great and most important of all the needle it uses is very affordable if you have to change it, a very important factor not included in this video since audiophiles tend to guide you to turntables that use much more expensive needles that can cost close to a hole LP60X

I really liked that the coffee changed form few times during this video, and thanks for the tips because I was wasting my time on pilling too much money for my first setup and now I'll go buy affordable stuff and build up over time.
Great review! Just bought the AudioTechnica LP60x (basic no Bluetooth). More than happy and it sounds great with my 25 year old Yamaha amp! I'll upgrade to an external phono amp in the coming months.
I received a Crosley Cruiser Plus for Christmas, and I was, fortunately, able to return it so I could buy an AT-LP60X. I really like it. If you're thinking of getting the Crosley for yourself or as a gift for someone else, skip it. I used mine, and the music sounded drunk. The AT sounds correct.
Pretty happy with my LP60X I've had some high end turntables that got away from me (divorce) so I needed to get a new turntable. I think it's an excellent first turntable and no reason it couldn't be a first and only. I've had mine for a few years now and I'm more interested in buying more records than upgrading.
My wife n I love our little LP60xbt. Its been a blessing and curse for me however, because alot of the fun is tinkering and upgrading/modding the players and hearing what if any differences they can make. The LP60x's to my knowledge only offer stylus replacements, which is a curse for me because Im limited to what I can mess with lol. Blessing for the wallet though. The main blessing however, is that I dont need to. Even when setup via bluetooth to a decent set of speakers(which works quite well too), the audio quality is comparable if not better than the heavily modded tables Ive owned or heard in the past. I'm still astonished by this little player after some time of ownership and the excessive use it sees.
I appreciate the cheaper recs as I’m on a students budget 😅. Definitely care more about having the records for now and can upgrade the player down the road!
I've wanted a turntable for years ever since I saw my uncle had one when I was little. I've researched the best and worst ones to buy that are affordable because I don't have heaps of money to spend. I had a feeling you'd talk about the Audio Technica turntable bc that is the one I was thinking of getting. My number 1 wish for my 18th next year is to get a turntable
First timer here, ashamed to say i believed amazon reviews and bought a suitcase player. It arrived today and i cant get through a single song on any of the records without it skipping at least 2 times, i tried all the advice to fix it and nada. i paid 55 for it 😂 feeling like an idiot im here now bc im gonna return that junk and get something better.
i bought my player before watching this. I bought the Audio Technica AT-LP60XBT you recommended before watching this video & i can definitely say I'm very proud of my purchase! Next Up some good quality speakers!
This was really helpful. It's also reassuring after checking the comments and seeing the more experienced vinyl enthusiasts agree with this video for the most part. Your recommendation is my prime candidate. Thanks for the help.
That you so much for this. I want to try to get into records because I love music but I am not ready to drop thousands of dollars on a hobby I may get sick of within a few months.
I came here looking at the Crosley and the Victrola suitcase players because I find the design to be cute, however, I didn’t fully consider the impacts it would have on my records because of a sub-par stylus and overextending the base. Thank you for enlightening me.
A good, down to earth video for those just starting out. Personally, I'd would have recommended going up a notch to AT LP 120 line. BTW, I use the legendary AT 33 Carts. I spin 3 Technics turntables, including 2 broadcast models, the SP-15 and SP-25. I've been doing this a while.
I love my 60X. I’m not a huge Audio head but wanted something easy to use that sounded good from the go. It was the perfect set up for me and I’ve been using it for years now. Only issue was them sending me a used damaged model to start 🤷🏻♂️
I just bought a Sony PS-LX310BT and it is great! Super easy to set up, comes pre balanced and with anti-skate already set up. I have it connected to my sound bar via Bluetooth and it sounds great!
I almost bought a suitcase turntable today. I just bought my very first records …And Justice For All and Ride the Lightning from Metallica. Thanks for the help.
Love this bc asking Reddit was the WORST place to ask bc I got so many mean remarks and gatekeeping type criticism when I was just curious… not a great way to make people feel welcome to the hobby :/
I have a pro-ject T1. It's a bit cheaper than the debut carbon series players but it's still a great player. It's in between the entry-level turntables and audiophile turntables. This means you might have to spend a bit more but this player will last you a lot longer. You can always upgrade the stylus but in my opinion, the Ortofon 5e which is included is already enough for most folks. I love how the T1 is the perfect middle ground. Even in design. The T1 looks minimalistic but also premium. Sure, it's not for everyone. But for anyone who wants to take a serious step into record collecting while saving some cash to actually start collecting, the T1 is my first recommendation.
My first turntable and last is the pro-ject debut carbon evo and after years of use it is still a great one. After years I bought Bowers & Wilkins 606 S2 speakers. It sounded even better with those.
Love the "2nd beer portion"/3rd drink comes into the vid 2 minutes in after expressing only wanting to drink one small coffee. Great review! All good points! Crosley suitcases aren't gonna be the best but there's definitive proof they won't "destroy" the vinyl but they probably won't be great either...they also have some great higher end options that aren't going to break the bank however probably not beginner players. I'm always keen to spend more one something I'm not going to want to sell a few years down the track. LP60x is great in that regard
Cheers for the comment though I don't know what you mean? I only had one tiny coffee in the 8 minutes I spend recording this 8 minute video ;) And yeah I probably laid it on a bit thick against crossley. The LP60X just seems to get the balance right. Probably something I should have mentioned is that you do have a crossley there is no need to panic, a lot of the noise that people hear on them is usually the player degrading instead of the records. A Ruby or Sapphire stylus last about 25 - 50 hours of play before needing replaced, a diamond stylus will get you about 1000 hours of play time. The Crossley's probably give you a bit less because the counterweight is a bit off. Records are also lot more durable than people make out. A good, clean and some decent inner sleeves do wonders regardless of the player you are using. I'd put my money there instead of on a fancy player.
I took a chance and didnt do my research. I bought the suitcase crossley for 40 bucks and it hasnt failed me yet. I have replayed my 3 of my 4 albums back to back already and I havent experienced any scratches or repeats yet. Might just be my luck but i do plan to invest in an Audio Technica
I honestly prefer getting my gear used. There can be awesome, older gear that still works absolutely fine for real cheap. Started out with a Technics SL-Q200 that I bought for 50$CAD...later got a Pioneer PL-12D for my vintage listening setup...both work wonders for me, for the money!
I got a technics 1210 MKii in mint condition, (£400), Rega MK1 preamp (£30), and I already had a matched pair of Yamaha HS8'S in my studio. I'll probably never have to upgrade in my entire life, which has saved me an absolute fortune in the future, I'm very very happy!
My first turntable, still my current one five years later, was the LP120x. I think that was worth it because I upgraded the stylus to the Microline one (just slid it off and on) and that made it sound much more detailed and 3D. You can’t upgrade the stylus on the LP60x to even one that sounds as good as the one that comes stock with LP120x (which sounds worse). I have heard the conical stylus that comes with the LP60x (I have the blue conical one for my turntable, which is the same, and it sounds too flat). My friend has an LP60 and he’s frustrated that he can’t upgrade it. I just think buying that low is a dead end. Buy cheap, buy twice.
I am playing vinyl since 2018 (Began when I was around 19). For me I used a combi from BigBen with a CD player inside of it, I changed out the stylus for a diamond one and used it for like 1 year. I enjoyed it for all the months I used it. I used another turntable from Philips from the 70''s for 2 years till the tonearm completely broke down and used another JVC 80's stereo which I used for like 3 years before it stopped being useful and starting to downgrade in sound. Both of the 2nd hands were like 30 euro''s each. I now bought a Audio Technica LP3XBT and like how easy it is to switch the stylus out. The tonearm will drop like a rock after using it for a few months but this can easily be fixed by using some oil on the outside of the black plastic that lifts the tonearm. Even after 6 years of playing almost daily I am still not in the need of something like a Technics. I spend 330 euro''s on the Audio Technica LP3XBT and I suspect it to be around for another few years to come.
I got one of those suitcases as a gift, and now, around a year later and several records, I think is finally time to upgrade it. Going for the lp60x. I have a good pair of speakers, but the quality just isn't really there, and I think it is because of the record player. It sounds way better from other devices.
Thank you!! I bought a disk awhile ago solely for the look (the Saltburn bathwater disk 😭) and have been seeing so many cool vinyl since that I decided I wanted a player. A friend told me to not get a suitcase player (for obvious reasons clearly) but everything he recommended was upwards of $500 which I do not have to put into a hobby right now. Will definitely be checking out the AT-LP60X
I'm 75 and alway's used a good 'Budget' seperate's system. My LP's still play near perfectly, even the 50 year old one's.... Back then, "Seperate's" were very common. I had most of the time, different make's of item's, Speaker's, Amp, CD player, & Turn Table. I've been using the same turn table for a good 30+ year's now. They last so invest a bit BUT not a lot.....
You get a 3600L, not an A95E catrige with the LP60! No problem though, just sounds fine. Best recommendation for beginners at the moment. I am totally with you.
An actually informative bloke, kudos to you bud and thanks for the reccomendation ❤ Definitely helped me pick out something relatively affordable. And subscribed
I was thinking about buting the lp60x but wasnt sols quite yet. But now i definitely am. I have an old tecord player that i bought from a garage sale and it did it job, but the sound wasnt good at all. It had build in speakers and was an older model i think. And the s time passed i wanna get more deep into vinyl but still dont want to spend too much money on it. This is the perfect balance turntable. Thankuu!!
Great informative video! I made the mistake of buying a suitcase record player in my early 20's and really regret it. Sure enough it broke. it was so poorly made so i gave it away for free for somone else to fix and enjoy. I've gone a long time without a player and was considering the AT-LP60X. Feeling confident about this purchase now after watching your video. Thank you!
Thank you man I remember I wore out my first record on a crappy suitcase and never got any of my other ones back out again. Knowing all this I’m going to go out and buy a vynil of the bends again and order all of this equipment
Every time I go to Barnes and Noble and people come there to get a record player they take my advice and buy the Audio Technica Lp60xbt instead of the Crosleys and Victrolas
The Bluetooth model is considerably more expensive, sadly. Currently the non BT model can be found for $219 (AUD) while the BT model is $100 more. Unless you shop at JB, in which case it’s almost double. Doesn’t change the fact that this is a super helpful video! Thank you
But it also depends on who buys a vinyl player for the first time. if it is a person who, for example, has a stereo system for $3000 and buys a cheap vinyl player, there is a risk that he will say Vinyl is BS Never again. because he might have a $500 CD player. If he buys a vinyl player player that does not produce as good sound or as large a stereo image, he will be dissatisfied, especially if it is a person who has lots of SACD and DVD Audio and Hi-res files
Thanks for the recommendation, it's an affordable price, I live in Brazil and these devices are usually expensive, but this one fits in my pocket, I started collecting records, but I wanted to listen to them on my own record player
More than half of the records, I have been given over the years are 78S. The only one here you listed that offers that option is the suitcase which I don’t want to wear out the linoleum
A one-time purchase of a wall mounted turntable stand, one that is screwed/bolted into the wall joists, never gets old. It makes every table sound more coherent. Pangea has one for $200USD. It is for music more than for hifi. Huge value.
Just got a suitcase player(exact same type that I had before that broke on me) for Christmas and immediately found problems. This video has shown me that I should probably kindly return it and get an Audio Technica. I’m no regular to vinyls by any means, but I want my collection to last
Thank you so much for this. It's incredibly helpful, easy to follow, and very pleasantly delivered. I'm completely new to vinyl and this was exactly what I needed
Just bought an at-lp60x after watching your video and very happy with it. Also bought edifier r1280db active speakers for it. Big jump in sound quality after my first Alive turntable, thank you :)
Love my 60X! Looks good, sounds great and a price point that can’t be beat. It was my first turntable, my go-to and most likely the only one I’ll ever purchase in the future…
I got an LP3BK for $200. No BT, but has a few other features that I liked. Set it up in just a few minutes and it sounds fantastic. I do sorta miss the BT option though, so I might be getting an external phono amp at some point.
But my 5x3x2 solid wood console record player with the penny on the stylus for extra weight plays my records just fine. And yes, those numbers represent measurements in feet. Anyway, great video. Love the recommendations.
Awesome video thank you so much but I just really want a suitcase player cause it’s so aesthetically pleasing and portable. Is there a possibility to get one and replace the needle????
Fluance has a whole range of very good turntables from $300-500 that would be a great next step in your journey. As counterintuitive as it may sound, you may find that the higher priced versions are better value due to the expensive add ons that outstrip the additional cost. Very good value for very well made turntables...
I haven't tried the entry level Sony but it is a similar concept to the LP60x. When you do feel like an upgrade it's again just looking at what you want an upgrade for. As Erik said some decent "mid-range" turntables out there without breaking the bank. Good thing is that you can add things like an external pre-amp or upgrade your speakers while using the LP60 so you don't have to drop so much cash in the one go. LP60's seem to last way longer than they should though so all that is tomorrow's problem!
@@Bendigorecords I agree wholeheartedly about the LP60, I had one and gave it to my daughter when she wanted to get into vinyl. I only brought up the Fluance because the original post sounded like they thought upgrades from the LP60 would have to be very expensive in order to upgrade significantly. The entry level Fluance is around $300 which is only twice the cost of the LP60, but is a pretty big step up in quality of build and sound. Good job on the video.
@@docwells7 You are spot on! There's probably a few tables in a similar price bracket that don't get talked about nearly enough as they should. The Fluance is probably the pick of the bunch as well. Even the LPW40/50's do a reasonable job for a similar price. Probably a first upgrade or beginner table for someone who already knows they are going to want to spend a bit more money on the hobby. Totally agree with you!
Hello. I am a slightly different case. I know absolutely nothing in audio technique concerning vinyl turntables. On the other hand, I have used turntables for a very large part of my life, that is to say for 20 years and probably beyond. We had a high-quality turntable at my parents' house with an ultra-light arm, etc. I am a music lover particularly connoisseur of classical music (and to a lesser extent of Jazz of the '30s, '40s and '50s) and i know musicology. So I have specific expectations in terms of sound quality or rendering. Not perfection of course (many of these recordings are quite old) but still sound perspective and clear sound. I own around 300 to 400 vinyls of often prestigious versions of classic vinyls that would be extremely difficult to find again, so one of my main criteria is to damage these vinyls as little as possible (examples of labels: Deutsche Grammophone, Columbia records, Decca London, RCA, EMI, Philips, Hungaroton, Telefunken, etc.). I already have a turntable for almost 2 years that I bought at a second-hand price and which has been completely restored (changed belt, internal cleaning, change of certain components, new needle, etc.) by a large specialized shop, it's a Technics SL-D2 which must date from the 80s perhaps. I use with this turntable 2 other pieces of equipment also bought at bargain prices, that is to say a NAD 3020i amplifier (same generation) and very good speakers. I use an antistatic brush with synthetic fibers for the maintenance of my vinyls. For the needle, I use 2 "styus cleaner" products from Audio-Technica AT617a: their "tacky gel" and their fluid and brush". When sometimes the purchased vinyl is really dirty, I first resort to demineralised water. Considering my profile described here, which frame model would you recommend ? Because I would like one day to procure a record player brand new. Congratulations for your excellent video.
Thank you so much for this video, I have trying to find some information that gear to Just starting out and The community kept on recommending equipment that felt way overkill for what for me will be a side hobby. I knew there had to be a middle road between the 60 dollar Walmart model and 500+ gear
Picked myself up an old Sanyo DCW 4800UM for 50 bucks a while ago and is my first vinyl player, not sure if its any good yet but i thought it was pretty interesting as its 3 in 1. All tough i don't get to use the radio part as in Norway we pretty much use dab radio.
staring at my carts full of video game soundtracks in record form i am struggling to justify buying more without having a player lmao! thanks to you i can now buy those records guilt free knowing what player to buy.... eventually
Very informative video! I was hoping for just a couple of more options though, maybe in the future could recommend some others for those interested in a mid-range model?
I found a turntable online called a "marley stir it up" turntable It's made from bamboo and it has an adjustable counter weight and anti skate. It's a little small compare to other turntables but it has a full size platter and you can change the cartridge or needle to your liking. It's worth less than the lp60 probably because it's made from recicled matterials (from what i've heard) and that's what makes it cheaper than the lp60
Decent table the Marley! Fairly confident the use the same audio technica stylus. Here is Oz it retails about $80 more than the LP60 though but I'd say its a great choice for a first table
Great video. I was thinking about getting a small collection of video game ost vinyls and I need something to play them with... Well the audio technica seemes a good option and connencting my bookshelf speakes with bluetooth seems convenient.
I have a Audio Technica LP60X-USB and I found that instead of turning at 33.3 rpm it was running at 34.9 rpm. My records sounded too high pitched and slightly odd. Luckily there is an adjuster underneath the deck that requires a tiny screwdriver to adjust the speed. I've got it set to the correct speed now but be aware this could be a problem. There are apps such as RPM you can use on your mobile phone to measure the rotation speed of your turntable.
I lost access to an old Realistic turntable when my dad passed and my brother wanted it for himself (thankfully, the 500 or so vinyl albums from the 60s to 80s stayed.) I ended up going with a Electrohome RR75. It is an all-in-one, but it has a good, rich sound, looks nice, and is upgradable to a diamond stylus, which I will be doing pretty soon. We do have one of the suitcase turntables, but it's been handed off to my son for him to enjoy vinyl as well (just not mine, lol, he's rough with everything!)
I got a big ben one that's pretty much considered as shitty as the suitcases type of record player, and also you could play CD's, and the radio on it and the thing lasted me for 9 whole years! the arm stopped working properly after that and the sound was completely deformed and well the speakers weren't incredible either so I finally got rid of it and now am looking to actually get something nicer! And I had no idea how crappy those all in one players were until I started digging haha. I was 13 years old when getting my first record player so it makes sense. But honestly I spent hours laying on the floor listening to my fav records on this thing so my standards are pretty low I think the audio technica or the other sony that people recommend will be a great change in comparison if I find some nice speakers with it. It will already feel like a luxury for me honestly to spend 350/400 it would be so unnecessary for me to spend more on some super high tech stuff. Thank you for this video because it reassured me that I can still get into records the "right" way without having excessive funds for it
I have the discontinued model from Audiotechnica (the AT-LP60, not the 'X') brand new years ago for like $100 and the only problem I've had with it was that it was spinning too fast. I don't know much about turntables, but I looked up the fix, tinkered with the actuator screw with some help with a table speed app on my phone, and it sounds perfect now.
Agree than the LP60 is a great starter turntable, especially since you can run it 100% automatic if you don't trust yourself manually handling the tonearm yet. Mine served me well until I found a Gemini 2410 for $100 and decided to upgrade so I would have something all-around higher quality and with more freedom to calibrate everything.
Hey don’t know if you’ll see this but I’m between the lp60 and the lp120 for a beginning table. I have a victrola empire but didn’t take long to realize that wasn’t smart lol. Does the lp60 provide long term stability and truly provide that fidelity that you want out of vinyl? The price is just so much nicer than dropping 400 on a 120
@@KanyewestbiggestfansBiggestfan The LP60 sounds fine because it's using an AT-3600L cart, if you get it for the right price. I've seen them priced upwards of $180 now and IMO you're better off with an older used table at that price
For the LP60X, would I need any external speakers or anything aside from the table and vinyls? I am extremely uninformed and clueless about turntables, I want one for Christmas but don’t want it to get wrecked or ruin my vinyls from being cheap materials!
I started a long long time ago with a Garrard then a Dual and eventually a Rega which I have now had for nearly 40 years. I think you should spend as much money as you possibly can and remember your set up is only as good as its weakest link. This is just my opinion.
I got the LP60X as my first turntable and I am so glad I picked this one up. This does everything I need and was easy to set up and start playing some music. I’m just using an aux cable running from the analog port in the pack to the speaker system I have for my tv (just a sound bar with a sub that’s connected by Bluetooth). Are there any intro level speakers on par with the LP60X value that you would recommended? That’s my next purchase. I live near St Pete, FL where Banana Records is - apparently the largest collection of new and used vinyl on earth (3.5 Million) - I’m excited to go check it out and get lost. Love the channel - got a sub from me!
Jokes on you right out the gate. You were my first video on buying record players. Thanks for guiding me! 😉
Lol me too I came here to comment this. Buying one for my gf for Christmas
@@financeandoctane did she like it?
Same 😂
Lol same!
My first one too!
Holy crap! I finally found someone that actually recommends an affordable turntable!
Finally somebody that understands that most people aren't gonna pull $2000 out of their arse for their first turntable setup.
Thank you!
Thankyou!
Seriously!!
Yeah no honestly it pisses me off how every video I watch is someone saying something along the lines of:
Our first product is a cheap, affordable, entry level and budget friendly turn table that will only set you back around 800$
Thank you fr 😭 the first vid I saw was priced low to high and the cheapest one was 300$ for barely any features
I got Rega Planar 2 for only 350 bucks on sale, and those have lifetime warranty as they lasts a lifetime.
Good to see someone mention modern convenience!
It's 2023 not 1970 and the newbies tend to be young not middle aged, and want plug and play.
Great advise!!!
well in comparison that's all I'd have to do to listen to music on Spotify lol
Thanks for this video! I'm only 18 and have never touched a record player before, so I was feeling pretty overwhelmed being bombarded with conflicting info regarding what I NEED and DON'T NEED. I just want to listen to my classical music collection.
I’m 18 as well and have been collecting vinyls since I was 15 and have only JUST decided to buy my first turntable bcz I could never afford a good one
@@valiant__holland8910must feel great to finally play all of those! I’m 17 and I’m more into cassettes but i just wanted to learn more about vinyl just in case i get into that too lol
Don’t be afraid to go the used route either! Many years ago I picked up a Numark TT-1700 belt-drive turntable from a pawnshop. It’s a DJ model - fully manual with adjustable anti-skate and counterweight. I stuck on a Grado cartridge and got an external Art phono preamp, and a few anti-slip mats. Total investment was about $200, and it sounds superb. Belt-drive is the way to go if you’re concerned about sound quality and reducing motor hum.
👆🏻 good advice here, esp if you have a repair shop nearby or are handy fixing things … i’ve dropped a lot on hi-fi setups before - but my most recent one is very budget & it sounds great - a free Gemini XL-100 turntable (semi-auto belt drive) w/a nice AT cartridge, a vintage Luxman R-115 (paid $200), and nearly free Bose 301 series 4 speakers (traded for them) …
no one mentioning he says the video will only be as long as it takes to drink the coffee and in the very next shot he has a new even bigger cup of coffee haha. I love it.
Excellent recommendation, and definitely avoid those suitcase players at all costs. You are right in saying that the Project isn't an entry level player. It's one that more seasoned vinyl heads should aspire to
Suggest the pro-ject primary or the elemental turntables , come pre loaded with a half decent ortofon cart, and is kind of entry level/ early audiophile quality. Upgrade later with an acrylic platter when funds/ambition allows-enjoy
@Glen Lockyer I think most people miss the Pro-Ject T1 series turntables in their recommendations. I know it's a bit past entry-level but the Pro-Ject T1 turntables are quite good for the price.
The project debut carbon (evo) is so popular but it's stealing the spotlight from the T1.
Is Jorlai a good brand? I'm love with a rose option. I want it a pink turntable ❤
Omg! I bought for my first vinyl a Victrola suitcase record player and I love it , but the speakers are not enough. I need an extra speaker . Please advise
I got a Pro-Ject Debut III
It’s pretty dated at this point but works amazingly well and sounds very good
Owner of LP60X here and I can say you can’t go wrong with it. The sound is great and most important of all the needle it uses is very affordable if you have to change it, a very important factor not included in this video since audiophiles tend to guide you to turntables that use much more expensive needles that can cost close to a hole LP60X
I really liked that the coffee changed form few times during this video, and thanks for the tips because I was wasting my time on pilling too much money for my first setup and now I'll go buy affordable stuff and build up over time.
Great recommendation. Also, this is the first turntable video I've found so far that's focused on the Aussie consumer.
Thanks! Glad you liked it. We always got frustrated by the American prices and unobtainable prices. More to come shortly hopefully!
Glad to see i'm not the only one that recommends the LP60 to beginners. Great starter turntable for someone just getting into the hobby.
Great review!
Just bought the AudioTechnica LP60x (basic no Bluetooth). More than happy and it sounds great with my 25 year old Yamaha amp! I'll upgrade to an external phono amp in the coming months.
I received a Crosley Cruiser Plus for Christmas, and I was, fortunately, able to return it so I could buy an AT-LP60X. I really like it. If you're thinking of getting the Crosley for yourself or as a gift for someone else, skip it. I used mine, and the music sounded drunk. The AT sounds correct.
Pretty happy with my LP60X I've had some high end turntables that got away from me (divorce) so I needed to get a new turntable. I think it's an excellent first turntable and no reason it couldn't be a first and only. I've had mine for a few years now and I'm more interested in buying more records than upgrading.
My wife n I love our little LP60xbt. Its been a blessing and curse for me however, because alot of the fun is tinkering and upgrading/modding the players and hearing what if any differences they can make. The LP60x's to my knowledge only offer stylus replacements, which is a curse for me because Im limited to what I can mess with lol. Blessing for the wallet though. The main blessing however, is that I dont need to. Even when setup via bluetooth to a decent set of speakers(which works quite well too), the audio quality is comparable if not better than the heavily modded tables Ive owned or heard in the past. I'm still astonished by this little player after some time of ownership and the excessive use it sees.
I appreciate the cheaper recs as I’m on a students budget 😅. Definitely care more about having the records for now and can upgrade the player down the road!
I've wanted a turntable for years ever since I saw my uncle had one when I was little. I've researched the best and worst ones to buy that are affordable because I don't have heaps of money to spend. I had a feeling you'd talk about the Audio Technica turntable bc that is the one I was thinking of getting. My number 1 wish for my 18th next year is to get a turntable
First timer here, ashamed to say i believed amazon reviews and bought a suitcase player. It arrived today and i cant get through a single song on any of the records without it skipping at least 2 times, i tried all the advice to fix it and nada. i paid 55 for it 😂 feeling like an idiot im here now bc im gonna return that junk and get something better.
I did the same thing 🥲😓
Same 😭
Yes suitcase players and record players with ceramic cartridges are a no no. Always get you a turntable with a removable headshell with a good cart
Audio techna all the way! It never disappoints
i bought my player before watching this. I bought the Audio Technica AT-LP60XBT you recommended before watching this video & i can definitely say I'm very proud of my purchase! Next Up some good quality speakers!
This was really helpful. It's also reassuring after checking the comments and seeing the more experienced vinyl enthusiasts agree with this video for the most part. Your recommendation is my prime candidate. Thanks for the help.
That you so much for this. I want to try to get into records because I love music but I am not ready to drop thousands of dollars on a hobby I may get sick of within a few months.
I came here looking at the Crosley and the Victrola suitcase players because I find the design to be cute, however, I didn’t fully consider the impacts it would have on my records because of a sub-par stylus and overextending the base. Thank you for enlightening me.
A good, down to earth video for those just starting out. Personally, I'd would have recommended going up a notch to AT LP 120 line. BTW, I use the legendary AT 33 Carts. I spin 3 Technics turntables, including 2 broadcast models, the SP-15 and SP-25. I've been doing this a while.
I am glad you were able to take some time off of your coffee drinking schedule to talk about record players
I love my 60X. I’m not a huge Audio head but wanted something easy to use that sounded good from the go. It was the perfect set up for me and I’ve been using it for years now.
Only issue was them sending me a used damaged model to start 🤷🏻♂️
I just bought a Sony PS-LX310BT and it is great! Super easy to set up, comes pre balanced and with anti-skate already set up. I have it connected to my sound bar via Bluetooth and it sounds great!
Most helpful video on Vinyl Players on UA-cam for me. Thank you so much!
I almost bought a suitcase turntable today. I just bought my very first records …And Justice For All and Ride the Lightning from Metallica. Thanks for the help.
Another good point is the sound quality. If your initial experience is negative, It can dissolution the pursuit altogether due to the disappointment.
Great job; focused on the positives and basics that reassured me on making an informed choice as a newbies.
My local used market is flooded with victorinox and crosley players. I think it supports everything you said. Thanks for the insights.
Love this bc asking Reddit was the WORST place to ask bc I got so many mean remarks and gatekeeping type criticism when I was just curious… not a great way to make people feel welcome to the hobby :/
I love how the “wee cup of coffee” ends up changing. HAHAHA! Great video and my first one regarding playing vinyl. Thanks!
I have an AT-LP60 and a set of Edifier shelf speakers.
Not an audiophile setup, but its great for home listening on the cheap.
I have a pro-ject T1. It's a bit cheaper than the debut carbon series players but it's still a great player. It's in between the entry-level turntables and audiophile turntables. This means you might have to spend a bit more but this player will last you a lot longer. You can always upgrade the stylus but in my opinion, the Ortofon 5e which is included is already enough for most folks.
I love how the T1 is the perfect middle ground. Even in design. The T1 looks minimalistic but also premium.
Sure, it's not for everyone. But for anyone who wants to take a serious step into record collecting while saving some cash to actually start collecting, the T1 is my first recommendation.
My first turntable and last is the pro-ject debut carbon evo and after years of use it is still a great one. After years I bought Bowers & Wilkins 606 S2 speakers. It sounded even better with those.
Love the "2nd beer portion"/3rd drink comes into the vid 2 minutes in after expressing only wanting to drink one small coffee.
Great review! All good points! Crosley suitcases aren't gonna be the best but there's definitive proof they won't "destroy" the vinyl but they probably won't be great either...they also have some great higher end options that aren't going to break the bank however probably not beginner players.
I'm always keen to spend more one something I'm not going to want to sell a few years down the track. LP60x is great in that regard
Cheers for the comment though I don't know what you mean? I only had one tiny coffee in the 8 minutes I spend recording this 8 minute video ;)
And yeah I probably laid it on a bit thick against crossley. The LP60X just seems to get the balance right. Probably something I should have mentioned is that you do have a crossley there is no need to panic, a lot of the noise that people hear on them is usually the player degrading instead of the records. A Ruby or Sapphire stylus last about 25 - 50 hours of play before needing replaced, a diamond stylus will get you about 1000 hours of play time. The Crossley's probably give you a bit less because the counterweight is a bit off.
Records are also lot more durable than people make out. A good, clean and some decent inner sleeves do wonders regardless of the player you are using. I'd put my money there instead of on a fancy player.
Loved the video, great info. That's the one I'm going to buy. It's perfect for my needs. I watched while having a cup of tea. ☕
Would love a follow up video on pairing speakers for the Lp60
On it's way (albiet very delayed)
I took a chance and didnt do my research. I bought the suitcase crossley for 40 bucks and it hasnt failed me yet. I have replayed my 3 of my 4 albums back to back already and I havent experienced any scratches or repeats yet. Might just be my luck but i do plan to invest in an Audio Technica
I got a scratch on mine😢😢😢😢
I honestly prefer getting my gear used. There can be awesome, older gear that still works absolutely fine for real cheap. Started out with a Technics SL-Q200 that I bought for 50$CAD...later got a Pioneer PL-12D for my vintage listening setup...both work wonders for me, for the money!
the SL-Q200 is a great turntable, I snagged one about two years ago for $25, definitely worth it!
Thanks so much for this honest review with recommendations. It really helped me choose the right turntable for a gift
I got a technics 1210 MKii in mint condition, (£400), Rega MK1 preamp (£30), and I already had a matched pair of Yamaha HS8'S in my studio. I'll probably never have to upgrade in my entire life, which has saved me an absolute fortune in the future, I'm very very happy!
My first turntable, still my current one five years later, was the LP120x. I think that was worth it because I upgraded the stylus to the Microline one (just slid it off and on) and that made it sound much more detailed and 3D. You can’t upgrade the stylus on the LP60x to even one that sounds as good as the one that comes stock with LP120x (which sounds worse). I have heard the conical stylus that comes with the LP60x (I have the blue conical one for my turntable, which is the same, and it sounds too flat). My friend has an LP60 and he’s frustrated that he can’t upgrade it. I just think buying that low is a dead end. Buy cheap, buy twice.
You had me at “Bendigo”, I’m going to get what you said. Thanks chaps!
I am playing vinyl since 2018 (Began when I was around 19).
For me I used a combi from BigBen with a CD player inside of it, I changed out the stylus for a diamond one and used it for like 1 year. I enjoyed it for all the months I used it.
I used another turntable from Philips from the 70''s for 2 years till the tonearm completely broke down and used another JVC 80's stereo which I used for like 3 years before it stopped being useful and starting to downgrade in sound.
Both of the 2nd hands were like 30 euro''s each.
I now bought a Audio Technica LP3XBT and like how easy it is to switch the stylus out.
The tonearm will drop like a rock after using it for a few months but this can easily be fixed by using some oil on the outside of the black plastic that lifts the tonearm.
Even after 6 years of playing almost daily I am still not in the need of something like a Technics.
I spend 330 euro''s on the Audio Technica LP3XBT and I suspect it to be around for another few years to come.
I got one of those suitcases as a gift, and now, around a year later and several records, I think is finally time to upgrade it. Going for the lp60x. I have a good pair of speakers, but the quality just isn't really there, and I think it is because of the record player. It sounds way better from other devices.
Loved this intro to vinyl setups! I'm still unclear about how the entire set up comes together. Any tips or a specific guide that could help me out?"
Video guide coming soon to a UA-cam channel near you
I remember using RecordBuilds for my first set up - they have a few which are a pretty comprehensive guide for the basics to get you started.
Thank you!! I bought a disk awhile ago solely for the look (the Saltburn bathwater disk 😭) and have been seeing so many cool vinyl since that I decided I wanted a player. A friend told me to not get a suitcase player (for obvious reasons clearly) but everything he recommended was upwards of $500 which I do not have to put into a hobby right now. Will definitely be checking out the AT-LP60X
I'm 75 and alway's used a good 'Budget' seperate's system. My LP's still play near perfectly, even the 50 year old one's.... Back then, "Seperate's" were very common. I had most of the time, different make's of item's, Speaker's, Amp, CD player, & Turn Table. I've been using the same turn table for a good 30+ year's now. They last so invest a bit BUT not a lot.....
You get a 3600L, not an A95E catrige with the LP60! No problem though, just sounds fine. Best recommendation for beginners at the moment. I am totally with you.
An actually informative bloke, kudos to you bud and thanks for the reccomendation ❤
Definitely helped me pick out something relatively affordable.
And subscribed
Excellent and straight to the point. Nice video!
I was thinking about buting the lp60x but wasnt sols quite yet. But now i definitely am. I have an old tecord player that i bought from a garage sale and it did it job, but the sound wasnt good at all. It had build in speakers and was an older model i think. And the s time passed i wanna get more deep into vinyl but still dont want to spend too much money on it. This is the perfect balance turntable. Thankuu!!
Great informative video! I made the mistake of buying a suitcase record player in my early 20's and really regret it. Sure enough it broke. it was so poorly made so i gave it away for free for somone else to fix and enjoy. I've gone a long time without a player and was considering the AT-LP60X. Feeling confident about this purchase now after watching your video. Thank you!
Any update on the AT-LP60X?
Thank you man I remember I wore out my first record on a crappy suitcase and never got any of my other ones back out again. Knowing all this I’m going to go out and buy a vynil of the bends again and order all of this equipment
Every time I go to Barnes and Noble and people come there to get a record player they take my advice and buy the Audio Technica Lp60xbt instead of the Crosleys and Victrolas
Thank you so much for the advice. I'm looking forward to my new hobby of vinyl.
The Bluetooth model is considerably more expensive, sadly. Currently the non BT model can be found for $219 (AUD) while the BT model is $100 more. Unless you shop at JB, in which case it’s almost double.
Doesn’t change the fact that this is a super helpful video! Thank you
0:43 switches his tiny cup of coffee for a huge mug 😂☕
Then a beer 🍺 how long did it take to make the video?😂😂
You sold me on my buy. Thank you buddy!! 😊
But it also depends on who buys a vinyl player for the first time. if it is a person who, for example, has a stereo system for $3000 and buys a cheap vinyl player, there is a risk that he will say Vinyl is BS Never again. because he might have a $500 CD player. If he buys a vinyl player player that does not produce as good sound or as large a stereo image, he will be dissatisfied, especially if it is a person who has lots of SACD and DVD Audio and Hi-res files
Thanks for the recommendation, it's an affordable price, I live in Brazil and these devices are usually expensive, but this one fits in my pocket, I started collecting records, but I wanted to listen to them on my own record player
More than half of the records, I have been given over the years are 78S. The only one here you listed that offers that option is the suitcase which I don’t want to wear out the linoleum
A one-time purchase of a wall mounted turntable stand, one that is screwed/bolted into the wall joists, never gets old. It makes every table sound more coherent. Pangea has one for $200USD. It is for music more than for hifi. Huge value.
Just got a suitcase player(exact same type that I had before that broke on me) for Christmas and immediately found problems. This video has shown me that I should probably kindly return it and get an Audio Technica. I’m no regular to vinyls by any means, but I want my collection to last
Thank you so much for this. It's incredibly helpful, easy to follow, and very pleasantly delivered. I'm completely new to vinyl and this was exactly what I needed
Just bought an at-lp60x after watching your video and very happy with it. Also bought edifier r1280db active speakers for it.
Big jump in sound quality after my first Alive turntable, thank you :)
Love my 60X! Looks good, sounds great and a price point that can’t be beat. It was my first turntable, my go-to and most likely the only one I’ll ever purchase in the future…
Great job, useable information. I followed your recommendation, and followed you as well.
I got an LP3BK for $200. No BT, but has a few other features that I liked. Set it up in just a few minutes and it sounds fantastic. I do sorta miss the BT option though, so I might be getting an external phono amp at some point.
But my 5x3x2 solid wood console record player with the penny on the stylus for extra weight plays my records just fine. And yes, those numbers represent measurements in feet.
Anyway, great video. Love the recommendations.
LP60x is great, I ended up deciding to go a bit higher up and went for the LP3x which is somewhere between the LP60x and the LP120x
Awesome video thank you so much but I just really want a suitcase player cause it’s so aesthetically pleasing and portable. Is there a possibility to get one and replace the needle????
This video was super helpful, informative but to the point cheers man thx!!
I have Audio Technica lp60usbx. I think Sony is good for beginner too. I would upgrade someday but quite sure that it wouldn't be a high end range.
Fluance has a whole range of very good turntables from $300-500 that would be a great next step in your journey. As counterintuitive as it may sound, you may find that the higher priced versions are better value due to the expensive add ons that outstrip the additional cost. Very good value for very well made turntables...
I haven't tried the entry level Sony but it is a similar concept to the LP60x. When you do feel like an upgrade it's again just looking at what you want an upgrade for. As Erik said some decent "mid-range" turntables out there without breaking the bank. Good thing is that you can add things like an external pre-amp or upgrade your speakers while using the LP60 so you don't have to drop so much cash in the one go. LP60's seem to last way longer than they should though so all that is tomorrow's problem!
@@Bendigorecords I agree wholeheartedly about the LP60, I had one and gave it to my daughter when she wanted to get into vinyl. I only brought up the Fluance because the original post sounded like they thought upgrades from the LP60 would have to be very expensive in order to upgrade significantly. The entry level Fluance is around $300 which is only twice the cost of the LP60, but is a pretty big step up in quality of build and sound. Good job on the video.
@@docwells7 You are spot on! There's probably a few tables in a similar price bracket that don't get talked about nearly enough as they should. The Fluance is probably the pick of the bunch as well. Even the LPW40/50's do a reasonable job for a similar price. Probably a first upgrade or beginner table for someone who already knows they are going to want to spend a bit more money on the hobby. Totally agree with you!
Hello. I am a slightly different case. I know absolutely nothing in audio technique concerning vinyl turntables. On the other hand, I have used turntables for a very large part of my life, that is to say for 20 years and probably beyond. We had a high-quality turntable at my parents' house with an ultra-light arm, etc. I am a music lover particularly connoisseur of classical music (and to a lesser extent of Jazz of the '30s, '40s and '50s) and i know musicology. So I have specific expectations in terms of sound quality or rendering. Not perfection of course (many of these recordings are quite old) but still sound perspective and clear sound.
I own around 300 to 400 vinyls of often prestigious versions of classic vinyls that would be extremely difficult to find again, so one of my main criteria is to damage these vinyls as little as possible (examples of labels: Deutsche Grammophone, Columbia records, Decca London, RCA, EMI, Philips, Hungaroton, Telefunken, etc.).
I already have a turntable for almost 2 years that I bought at a second-hand price and which has been completely restored (changed belt, internal cleaning, change of certain components, new needle, etc.) by a large specialized shop, it's a Technics SL-D2 which must date from the 80s perhaps. I use with this turntable 2 other pieces of equipment also bought at bargain prices, that is to say a NAD 3020i amplifier (same generation) and very good speakers.
I use an antistatic brush with synthetic fibers for the maintenance of my vinyls. For the needle, I use 2 "styus cleaner" products from Audio-Technica AT617a: their "tacky gel" and their fluid and brush". When sometimes the purchased vinyl is really dirty, I first resort to demineralised water.
Considering my profile described here, which frame model would you recommend ? Because I would like one day to procure a record player brand new.
Congratulations for your excellent video.
Thank you so much for this video, I have trying to find some information that gear to Just starting out and The community kept on recommending equipment that felt way overkill for what for me will be a side hobby. I knew there had to be a middle road between the 60 dollar Walmart model and 500+ gear
I got myself a music station and restored it in like 2 Days of work and it works great. (it's probably from the 70s, came from east germany.
I love the Audio Technica Lp60xbt I have the original LP60 but I’m thinking about getting the Lp60xbt version one day
Picked myself up an old Sanyo DCW 4800UM for 50 bucks a while ago and is my first vinyl player, not sure if its any good yet but i thought it was pretty interesting as its 3 in 1. All tough i don't get to use the radio part as in Norway we pretty much use dab radio.
staring at my carts full of video game soundtracks in record form i am struggling to justify buying more without having a player lmao!
thanks to you i can now buy those records guilt free knowing what player to buy.... eventually
Very informative video! I was hoping for just a couple of more options though, maybe in the future could recommend some others for those interested in a mid-range model?
I just ordered an Audio-Technica AT-LP60XBT-BK Fully Automatic Bluetooth Belt-Drive Stereo Turntable!! thank you so much for your video.
My first and so far only turntable is the Denon DP300F. I got it on a sale on Amazon for like 200-300€ great player in my opinion
I found a turntable online called a "marley stir it up" turntable
It's made from bamboo and it has an adjustable counter weight and anti skate. It's a little small compare to other turntables but it has a full size platter and you can change the cartridge or needle to your liking.
It's worth less than the lp60 probably because it's made from recicled matterials (from what i've heard) and that's what makes it cheaper than the lp60
Did you buy it? Is it good?
Decent table the Marley! Fairly confident the use the same audio technica stylus. Here is Oz it retails about $80 more than the LP60 though but I'd say its a great choice for a first table
@@Bendigorecords oh okay, thank you!!
Yooooo tysm for commenting about these I'm totally gonna get one now!
Great video. I was thinking about getting a small collection of video game ost vinyls and I need something to play them with... Well the audio technica seemes a good option and connencting my bookshelf speakes with bluetooth seems convenient.
Id even suggest getting one of those school record players from the 80s. Built to last, with booming sound
I sprung for the LP120X and couldn't be happier
Literally my first turntable to buy video.
I have a Audio Technica LP60X-USB and I found that instead of turning at 33.3 rpm it was running at 34.9 rpm. My records sounded too high pitched and slightly odd. Luckily there is an adjuster underneath the deck that requires a tiny screwdriver to adjust the speed. I've got it set to the correct speed now but be aware this could be a problem. There are apps such as RPM you can use on your mobile phone to measure the rotation speed of your turntable.
I lost access to an old Realistic turntable when my dad passed and my brother wanted it for himself (thankfully, the 500 or so vinyl albums from the 60s to 80s stayed.) I ended up going with a Electrohome RR75. It is an all-in-one, but it has a good, rich sound, looks nice, and is upgradable to a diamond stylus, which I will be doing pretty soon. We do have one of the suitcase turntables, but it's been handed off to my son for him to enjoy vinyl as well (just not mine, lol, he's rough with everything!)
I got a big ben one that's pretty much considered as shitty as the suitcases type of record player, and also you could play CD's, and the radio on it and the thing lasted me for 9 whole years! the arm stopped working properly after that and the sound was completely deformed and well the speakers weren't incredible either so I finally got rid of it and now am looking to actually get something nicer! And I had no idea how crappy those all in one players were until I started digging haha. I was 13 years old when getting my first record player so it makes sense. But honestly I spent hours laying on the floor listening to my fav records on this thing so my standards are pretty low I think the audio technica or the other sony that people recommend will be a great change in comparison if I find some nice speakers with it. It will already feel like a luxury for me honestly to spend 350/400 it would be so unnecessary for me to spend more on some super high tech stuff. Thank you for this video because it reassured me that I can still get into records the "right" way without having excessive funds for it
NOT JOKING: THIS is the first video I am watching as a guide to by a record player 😅
I have the discontinued model from Audiotechnica (the AT-LP60, not the 'X') brand new years ago for like $100 and the only problem I've had with it was that it was spinning too fast. I don't know much about turntables, but I looked up the fix, tinkered with the actuator screw with some help with a table speed app on my phone, and it sounds perfect now.
everytime you said "Australian dollars" I heard "a trillion ish dollars." like im broke so it feels that way too but 😭 😂
Agree than the LP60 is a great starter turntable, especially since you can run it 100% automatic if you don't trust yourself manually handling the tonearm yet.
Mine served me well until I found a Gemini 2410 for $100 and decided to upgrade so I would have something all-around higher quality and with more freedom to calibrate everything.
Hey don’t know if you’ll see this but I’m between the lp60 and the lp120 for a beginning table. I have a victrola empire but didn’t take long to realize that wasn’t smart lol. Does the lp60 provide long term stability and truly provide that fidelity that you want out of vinyl? The price is just so much nicer than dropping 400 on a 120
@@KanyewestbiggestfansBiggestfan The LP60 sounds fine because it's using an AT-3600L cart, if you get it for the right price.
I've seen them priced upwards of $180 now and IMO you're better off with an older used table at that price
I just recently bought a REKKORD F400, which is really great.
For the LP60X, would I need any external speakers or anything aside from the table and vinyls? I am extremely uninformed and clueless about turntables, I want one for Christmas but don’t want it to get wrecked or ruin my vinyls from being cheap materials!
I started a long long time ago with a Garrard then a Dual and eventually a Rega which I have now had for nearly 40 years. I think you should spend as much money as you possibly can and remember your set up is only as good as its weakest link. This is just my opinion.
I got the LP60X as my first turntable and I am so glad I picked this one up. This does everything I need and was easy to set up and start playing some music. I’m just using an aux cable running from the analog port in the pack to the speaker system I have for my tv (just a sound bar with a sub that’s connected by Bluetooth).
Are there any intro level speakers on par with the LP60X value that you would recommended? That’s my next purchase. I live near St Pete, FL where Banana Records is - apparently the largest collection of new and used vinyl on earth (3.5 Million) - I’m excited to go check it out and get lost.
Love the channel - got a sub from me!
