Hi folks,

I’ve decided to make the switch and I’m not sure which vinyl player to go for. Here are my requirements:

  • Good sound, obviously
  • Headphone jack
  • Lightweight
  • Self powered, rather than mains
  • Bump resistant (I spend a lot of time on bus journeys each day)
  • Straps for my back (while shopping for groceries, I need to be hands-free)
  • Waterproof up to 2m because I swim at weekends

Anyway, this post was just for fun. I’m jealous of all your vinyl collections. I’m way too mobile to consider the investment but I wish you all well.

    It shouldn’t be bad, unless the receiver is really awful. Might be bad electronics that could be fixed.

    Regardless, a surprisingly good headphone preamp can be had for cheap, if you’re willing to go the Amazon/China route.
