TRC Certified Vinylhead
Mangalore, India
What are your favourite genres?
Retro & Classic Rock, Pop, Hip Hop on Vinyl. But for me music genre boundaries don't exist. I listen to what I like and it can be every genre.
How did you first get into collecting records?
Most of my collection is hand-me-down from my dad. He is the real Certified Vinylhead here. I watched him collecting them my whole life and it was inevitable for me to pick up on that hobby. I cannot remember a time in my life that didn't have a vinyl playing and when I left home after studies, I felt the urge to start my own collection and add to the totality of it.
What’s your turntable setup like?
We have 2 main set ups:
Setup 1:
Sherwood PM-9805
Powered by Pioneer DC-110Z Amp & Cox Equalizer
Pioneer & Technics Speakers
We have got an Akai & Technics in Storage which were used previously, both in working condition and few others which need a cartridge to work
Setup 2:
Denon DP29J
Fenda (F&D) Home Threatre 5.1 Speakers
What’s your best advice for people starting their vinyl journey?
Invest in a good player, a good amplifier and speakers as it makes a world of a difference when you do.
If you cannot afford the whole setup initially, use a player with a built-in Phono Preamp connected to any speakers and then work your way up from there.
Also invest in a good storage setup to preserve and protect your records.
