Two Guys Talking About Records - A Vinyl Community Podcast

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Steve & Jim love talking about records. (obviously) But sometimes, when it comes to the gear this listen with, they're both a little out of their element. To counter that this week, they welcome a special guest - who also happens to be an expert on audio equipment! It's David from the Poetry On Plastic YouTube Channel! He's also a contributor the gear review channel The Absolute Sound. David chats with the guys about how important the right system can be to the vinyl experience, and even covers the philosophy of pairing your vinyl with quality equipment. He also joins Jim & Steve in showing off their most recent pickups.
