Old Classic LP Disks

[sierrawaltz]

What can i do with my mom & Dad's LP Disk collection,
They ve got classics like floyd,police etc

("The Darkside of the moon", would be placed along side my body during my cremation )

But the other expendable stuff can it be sold ? :ashamed:
And if i wanna maintain these things how should I go about that ?

Try to source a LP player. Have been trying too, but could not find a place. Wish someone knew. You know any place where good LP players can be procured. NCR..?

For maintenance:

Keep the platters on a flat surface, with no weight on top of them. Like a cupboard. Away from dust and moisture. Prevent bowing at all costs. Love the LP sound. Drop the needle..Mmmm.

Post your collection, there might be people here who would be interested

@lord_shrex, those are vintage stuff man, don't sell them! for maintainence, do what asingh suggested above and google for more tips! 20 years down the line, you could become a vintage LP disk collector of sorts :cool2:

@lord_shrex:

Create a ID on hifiVision forum. People will lap them up there. Though before you do that, post the list of LPs here. People might be interested. I am...!

You can buy a used Vinyl player. Scour ebay for such deals.

One such deal is here - SONY PS-LX250H Stereo Turntable System Vinyl Player - eBay (item 160402982681 end time Feb-16-10 10:56:10 PST)

@OP,

Post the list here. Many are interested

@BF1983

The eBay link has a shipping charge of $148.50.

May be he can consider buying a new Denon TT from ProFX unless the Sony TT is better than the Denon one?

[sierrawaltz]

and to be honest some of them have some serious childhood memories to them, I wanna restore some and frame them!

Well see what you can do. Honestly speaking, if there is no space or movement constraint (you moving houses), do not even give one away.

 

[sierrawaltz]

I wouldn't surely

 

[Chaos]

I'm willing to buy your entire lot. Just send me a list and a quote. Can have it picked up from Delhi - no need to ship. Thanks!

 

[asingh]

Am in there too. Want to bid..?

 

[hellfire]

IIRC I saw a real one for sale in Delhi Haat (the INA one). Also try the market at Sunder Nagar (Delhi) antique shops if you're interested in buying an LP player.

Edit: Ah, just recalled I had read this article somewhere ... Rediff An audio haven at Chandni Chowk
