I will say, I got into vinyl records around 2019, and my biggest joy about them is the stuff it comes with. Its kind of like getting a collectable from an artist you really like, and you can listen to it too. Thats how I see it at least. Its a collectible from a band I really enjoy, that comes with lots (or little) amounts of stuff, and I can listen to the album while I look at the stuff. HOWEVER... if all you care about is sound, and only sound, a good digital setup is what I would go with. Vinyl is hit or miss. Several albums I have are fantastic on their own, but are terrible presses. Some will sound great for the first half, then slowly degrade as the needle gets to the middle. Some skip right out of the packaging. Some just sound terrible. There are some vinyls that sound great though. Some that sound better than digital. But then you get into the speakers youre using. Some speakers give vinyls a warmth that cant be replicated. But those speakers usually fail in other regards. Hunting down a GOOD press of an album you like can be an absolute nightmare Basically, I see vinyls as a good way to support a band you like, get some cool collectables, and have a tangible experience while youre listening. But to get the best possible sound with no where near the hassle, I would go digital.

@joshuapettus6973

I always felt the the vinyl resurgence was more of a reaction to the "make music louder" wars with the awful compression practices from the studios and the crap spotify does as oppose to any actual limitation in digital music. There are physical limitations to vinyl that do not allow for that kind of maximization of the wave form, so the music is allowed to "breath" so to speak. It's important to note that digital has the capacity to sound better beyond what any analog storage can do. That doesn't mean it always is and that's not the medium's fault. It's more on the many choices and compromises from the many people that made the file. Also, it is nice to actually own a physical copy of something as oppose to just another flac file on your PC.

indeed, you want them almost completely isolated from one another if possible. the added vibrations are really bad for the grooves of the record and will make it wear out a lot quicker.

A speaker that you put a turntable on top of? That is literally THE WORST IDEA. unless that speaker is REALLY weak (which could be possible) the turntable will pick up the vibrations from the speaker (some are even subsonic) and can either make the Needle skip or cause a feedback loop that can blow out your speakers, at the Very least you will be worsening the playback quality of your record. I had to use Vibrapods and Squash balls to get my turntable to not pickup vibrations from my speakers and mine is NOT sitting on top of them.

Yes, digital formats sound way better than vinyl (I collect records and I'm pretty sure).

Speaker vibrations can set off the tonearm and cause skips or worse, scratches due to the needle hitting the record.

Why core i5? At $5000 budget?

I know it's relatively unpopular, but digital music formats are better in almost every way. However, there is one example that I know of where a vinyl record is capable of something that is, as far as I know, not replicable digitally. The band "Defeater" has an album called "Empty Days & Sleepless Nights" where, at the end of the song "White Oak Doors" the vinyl intentionally stops progressing to the next groove. It will not proceed to the next song until you manually move the needle. It's an artistic choice that reflects the death of a viewpoint story character. Digitally, the album simply features a prolonged silence, so it's a different experience on vinyl with the listener being forced to progress the track themselves. I know of no other examples of this technique, but it's the best argument I know of for listening to vinyl over digital. (Edit: corrected the album name to an & instead of the word "and", also corrected the song name to "Doors" instead of "Door".)

For me, I like vinyl for the nostalgia. My dad had an Audiophile ship mate when he was in the Navy, and he got some great hand-me-downs. I no longer have a turntable, but when I visit friends who do collect, I keep asking if they have BTO or Boots Randolph...

Very big point of having those LP-records was they had possibly super cool cover art. The whole package was the coolest object you can own. You waited for a new LP two years. And one thingy was that you could see the music from the surface of the LP. For example one could immediately spot the ballad and longer hit effort. In fact the visual observation gave good clue if the record was full of hits or was it a forced product. Of course a simulation image of an LP-record could be easily created for any current music player - on smart phone or PC screen. It appears like such culture does not exist but there is no reason it could not reborn.

Having a turntable, which is a machine that reads vibrations from a physical track on a vinyl disk, sitting on a speaker, a device which amplifies and emits vibrations, sounds like a beyond stupid idea. Just get a set of stereo bookshelf speakers... FFS

Hey, @Linustechtips you should try the nr200p inverted mod. That way you can have the rad at the top and also mount the gpu vertically.

OMG someone that uses Dex! When I worked for Samsung it came out with the S8 and I loved the concept behind having your pc in your pocket and docking it when you arrived home for a larger experience. I just have never actually heard of anyone actually using it in my day to day passing in the cellular industry. There was this guy working on a full windows 10 port to the oneplus 6t but I haven't checked up on it in awhile. Having my rig in my pocket would just be amazing.

They didn't resolve until I reduced the number of wireless connections in my rig.

Have that mobo and riser cable. You can run it in pcie 4.0 no problemo. The older recalled non plus model couldn't do it, but that one can. Also, 1 ssd slot goes to chipset lanes, the other goes direct to CPU lanes. Both are gen 4, but did notice random speeds were slower on the chipset vs CPU. I spent month fighting the old non plus board with the same CPU and a 3060ti. AMA.

as a modest record collector, I can say the experience of listening to vinyl records does have a (debatably) desirable je ne sais quoi.

I definitely get the feeling ritual and nostalgia about his dad's collection are parts of the appeal for Matt.

I DJ with vinyl here and there. there is a nice feel to it, but infinitely, its much easier and better to use digital formats. They will always sound better with less maintenance, and you can actually play at louder volumes at venues because the vibrations wont interfere with the needles. Mainly, Vinyl is just a preference. Digital audio is much better in every practical sense. I do like the sound though!

18:21 I tried wireless(Specifically Bluetooth) keyboard Keychron K1 V5, but I stopped using in wireless mode after days of connection and latency issues. It does work, but sometimes it kills both Bluetooth keyboard and trackball in Windows with brand new USB Bluetooth adapter I bought. I initially suspected the BT adapter, but my Linux laptop also shows similar issue(it does recover after few seconds though). I could've bought different BT adapter or different BT keyboard, but at this point I wasn't willing to spend any more money to troubleshoot the issue. I am done with Bluetooth keyboard, at least for now. I also updated my K1's firmware to see if it's any better, but it did not help. And even if the connection was stable, it would get instant F when playing rhythm games.

Bluetooth is sadly not a fast protocol at all. Not surprised you had latency issues, especially playing rhythm games. Did you at least get a chance to tune the latency in those games though? If so, what was the offset?

oh that case has that problem even with the stock fan.... for the NR200P version which was the one before the top mounted radiator version and has both the glass and the mesh side panel version.... its why my SFFL PSU had to be mounted on the bottom one for the SFF PSU and i had no choice but to vertical mount my GPU otherwise the cable coming out of the PSU will not have enough space at all... the newer top mounted radiator version fixed the issue by off setting the fan mounting location further towards the side panels and away from the mobo to fix this issue.... basically this case can only fix either an ATX PSU with a 3d printed brackets you can get on their site or you have to go the SFF PSU with the 90mm fan... i had to force my SFFL PSU to fit in with my GPU vertical mounted and removing the option to use the glass panel which i wanted to use over the mesh panel....

Built exact same case a few weeks ago. Specifically went AIO with the pump in the rad so the rad could be on the bottom. No risk of pump bubbles in the stand cpu/pump combo, since the CPU is the high point of this AIO build.

1:41 - I used to have the largest Wii collection in the hood. A Wii and censor bar. But I threw it out after getting a proper PC.

I like records because of the physicality and interactivity of them. They sound great, but aren't convenient. It really is about looking at the art, touching the disk, cleaning the disk, flipping it over when a side is done. It's about loving it. It's the same reason I drive a manual. Life isn't always about doing things most efficiently. I never just sit down to listen to digital music; I always have to be doing something else. I will sit down for hours and only listen to records. It's because I feel more connected to it as a listening experience. Plus, there's no shadow of doubt that I own the copies of my music, not just licensed to play it. (I know a lot of that is applicable to CDs, but it's just different. Like CDs don't have any romanticism. They're just digital copies on a physical disc. A record is sound physically etched into vinyl (I know a CD's data is physically etched into the plastic, but I can't see it with my bare eyes, and it's digitally converted, not the straight vibrations amplified). and they're huge. If I were to use CDs, I'd just do only digital.) I started collecting because I bought the King of Limbs (IIRC, the first wave of production only came as a vinyl/CD/download combo) and didn't have anything to play it on, so I invested in a turntable. Then, I needed more reasons to use it.

Cool views, I respect them, you however got one thing wrong - vinyl does not sound great. It's significantly and clearly audibly worse than digital. My take is people use it for sentiment, looks and show off only. If someone is interested in actual music he goes for digital as it unquestionably sounds better.

I love the gamer Wii! I never knew I would have lost, loved and gained so many devices in a very very short amount a time so I throughly enjoy the downgraded upgrade video and I am here for all of it! I just got my Mac today and she has Intel! Thanks Intel and Thank you Gentlemen!💻👩🏾‍💻👾

I don't feel anything different from vinyl, it sounds just like CD to me, but I still enjoy the medium. That being said, the Andover Audio Spinbase seems like an idiotic solution if you have *ANY* other speakers in your house. My current Pro-Ject Debut Carbon is hooked up to Elac Uni-fi UF5s and it's ridiculous. Granted those are up to 1K for a pair, but even the uni-fi bookshelf speakers would be better than that Spinbase imo.
