Hi all music lovers, I'm truly enjoying this wonderful tour because like you I too am a vinyl junkie[smile] I'm sorry that I can't post a photo of my little vinyl mancave...keep up the good work....vinyl forever!!
Can I say, Frank, I’m sure you get a ton of submissions that are just amazingly expensive set ups. Like that Macintosh one! Boof! Musta cost a couple bucks. I’m glad you used like regular dude set ups in the video. They were super cool and something I could afford as well. Thanks so much for giving us regular dudes a spot light. Cheers!
Vinyl Dens is one of my favorite Channel 33 RPM segments! I can only imagine how much free time Simon must have to be able to collect and watch all those DVD's. Any 33ers whose significant others complain about their music buying habits should show that segment to them, and say "See, I'm not so bad after all!"
The Ortofon 2M Bronze is a nice step up from 2M Blue and not as pricey as the black. Just a thought. I have a bronze cart and really love it. It came with my TT and I thought I'd upgrade it but ended up really digging it. YMMV.
I very much like the use of dividers. That looked clean, and finding an album looks to be easy. These room tours are wonderful. It's a a lot fun to see these expressions of individual passions through their rooms and collections. Great to see. I truly admire the effort and commitment all of these folks have put forth to create these oasis of audio and visual pleasure for all of us to see.
Thanks, homie! Appreciate what you do for all of us, every Sunday and (most) Fridays. Passed on a lot of your advice last night with a friend, who has likewise fallen in love with the format in the last year or so.
Give me a well used recliner, a good beer and a few great albums. The rooms are cool, but with you ears opening listening and eyes closed it doesn’t matter where you are.
Wow what a great video Frank !! I absolutely love your vinyl dens section and it gives me some more ideas for my poor excuse for a den. Those rooms looks so cool... and at least i know now where "Blockbusters" went ha ha !!
Hi Frank this was a great video I love to see other people's set ups and music collections, really dig the guy who divided all his albums it's something I'm planning on doing myself. Many thanks Frank & have a good week.
McIntosh and more!!! I can't get good lighting for my area. I'm so stoked I scored Johnathan Richman RSD and found a sealed 1983 Tears For Fears The Hurting for $1.50 thrifting a day later!
Hi Frank, before you check out the Ortofon Black, check out the Ortofon Bronze first. The Bronze is between the Blue and the Black. I like the Bronze for more fullness and punch in the sound over the Blue. I will say that while there’s a difference between the Blue and Bronze, it’s not as much of a difference as there is between the Red and the Blue. I too would like to check out the Black, but it’s just too expensive. The Bronze is as far as I can go. However, my main workhorse is the Blue, which I’m very happy with.
Great video awesome rooms I'm going to get my room setup to send to you it's just figuring out how to do it but eventually I will it's a pretty good man cave can't wait to show it thank you again keep on spinning 🤘😛
Wow that first mancave was cool. And it might be that I saw same looking amplifier that I haven. Though my is broken. And that second one. Those speakers!!! I don't remember seeing those kind of. Well all of them were really cool!! mr. Finglish (Bäd English Recs)
Great to see these collections! I have my records and CDs organized and alphabetical order and release order. Everything is in my room because I am in shared housing. I try not to get to carried away with my music hoarding. Sure ❤ what I have. Makes me happy to listen to music. I have vinyl sleeves on my albums also.
Awesome spaces, must send you mine fairly modest one some day. On that Mcintosh setup, I got three records on RSD and one was the Grateful Dead, 'Playin' In the Band' which has on it's the cover a picture of the infamous Wall of Sound. I understand they used no less than 60(!) 300 watt per channel Mcintosh amps for that!
Awesome video and love the Vinyl Dens segments. Quick question...how do you get the graphics for Vinyl Dens up on the monitor on the record shelf behind you? Is that from a computer plugged into it? I'm looking to do this with a TV that I don't use to add to music room I have. Thanks for all you do on the channel Frank.
Always cool to see other people's audio rooms. I am hoping to fix up part of my basement and make a dedicated room for music down there. Right now, my setup is in my main living room, so I have to keep it wife friendly as much as possible. My speakers and gear look pretty good so she doesn't mind to much, but I would like to have more interesting music flavored decor. So, I'll have to wait until I get the basement done to relocate everything and spice it up a little.
I’m jealous lol. My listening space is my lounge with 2 Technics 1210 Mk2 decks and a pair of Lynn and a pair of Mission Speakers. My record collection sits upstairs in the spare bedroom. One day I’ll get a proper record room. One day 🤞
Hi Frank, great video, thank you for sharing! I will definitely send you an email with my setup, it's not super high-end, but I think it sounds awesome. My main listening room is my livingroom but I also have a setup in my bedroom, i'll include both. Great video, keep spinning, I really want to get one of those shirts, greetings from Dallas, TX 😃
Obviously people love the music or they would not be in this hobby. But it is interesting to note that sound quality seems to always take a back seat. So many rooms seen on the internet lack proper treatment and correct speaker placement. I always wonder if people just don't care or do they have no idea what they are missing?
Good topic! I suppose everyone has their priorities and must make certain compromises. For example, my music space is 10 feet by 10 feet, and it needs to house all my stereo gear and records, while also function as a home office, so certain compromises must be made.
Killer video!!! I’ve been thinking of sending you a submission but I haven’t gotten on it yet! I have a TH-cam channel and I’m almost on my second year in the VC! I’m a longtime 33er and your channel is the first one i saw over 5 years ago! I actually just did my first room tour last month and if you get a chance to check it out that would be cool ! I do understand if you can’t! I have 4,000 records along with hundreds of CDs and cassettes and i do have a very cool feature in my music room that I haven’t seen in anyone else’s! Thank you for making these great videos and inspiring me to join the VC!!👍🤘🤘
Hey Aaron - you should send the pics! I am a subscriber of your channel already (I think I ended up there via JC). I will check out the room tour. Cheers
@@Channel33RPM i will take some pictures and send them tomorrow! I’m getting ready to do a live stream with JC , Mrhoffame and a couple more of my friends on Jeff Whitcher vinyl destination’s channel. We are creating an ultimate Load album combining Load and Reload , it should be fun! 🤘🤘
Thanks for showing my den, Frank! It's been a labor of love for two decades over multiple houses. Please check out my channel if you want to see me talk metal and movies :) I should append that I too run the Nagaoka MP110 on my turntable, such a warm sound that really brings the best out of my records!
Thanks for sending these pictures over, Simon. I have indeed subscribed to your channel (joined the Explosive Action legion a couple of weeks back). Cheers man!
There is some info at the end of the video. I also added this below the video: Interested in being on a future episode of Vinyl Dens? Please send your submission to channel33rpm@gmail.com. Make sure to include 5 to 8 clear, well-lit and in-focus photos of your space and gear, including long shots and close ups. Also include a bit about yourself (name, age, where you live, how long you have been collecting), a bit about your gear, and information about your room (where in your home it is located, how you put it together, special considerations, cool features, etc). I will do my best to get as many rooms as possible on future episodes; however, please note I do get more submissions than I have time to show. Thanks!

That was pretty cool! Makes me want to do something similar w/ Game Rooms on my channel 🤔
You should Jason -- that would be very cool.
Side side note. Every TH-cam channel your mentioned here I subscribed to. Cuz why not?!
Meet new people, learn new things! Cheers!

I manage to squeeze in a movie a night, and as I work from home, records are always spinning!
Thanks Tom - it's fun to put these together.
Awesome my friend!! One of my favorite segments you do!!!
Awesome, thank you!
OMG look at that music rooms ❤️🤘am amazed.
I really enjoy the music room videos! I'd love to hear those McIntosh speakers!
You got a cool warm place to listen music!!!! Cheers from Costa Rica Great Channel my friend!!!!
Hello Cristian!
Nice job Frank with viewers systems…!
Greatly enjoy checking them out…
Thanks David - I'm glad you dug it!
I love these segments! Gives me so many ideas! Most of which i can't afford to do. LOL. Some day I'll send mine in!
You and me both, Lisa. But it sure is fun to look/gawk.
more of these videos please!!

Hi Frank, thank you for featuring my system! Every system featured on this episode was great. After all, it's all about the music!
Great set up you have. Thanks for letting all of us have a glimpse!
Some seriously sweet rooms brother!! Thanks for sharing this with us Frank
Thanks for tuning in, Rod.
My Fav part of your channel...Thanks
Glad you dig it!
Great video Brother Thanks for sharing 😀 👍 ♥️ 🇨🇦 🔊🎶🎶🎶🎶💯💯💯💯
Thanks for watching
I loved the Macintosh Hi-Fi Room, but also loved that you showed the next system which was just as good for that owner too.
That Macintosh system was sick. If only I had the money for that setup. 🤔
@@aaronslibrary7745 It would be nice.
Thanks Robert. I try to show a variety of different kinds of set ups.
I love Simon channel and his take on extreme metal and horror movies. Great shoutouts!
Cheers mate!
Lost you for a while glad I found your channel again
Welcome back!
@@Channel33RPM thanks
McIntosh and more!!! I can't get good lighting for my area. I'm so stoked I scored Johnathan Richman RSD and found a sealed 1983 Tears For Fears The Hurting for $1.50 thrifting a day later!
congrats on the pick ups!
I love the Rocky Horror poster on the wall 😂
Fun video Frank! It's neat seeing other collectors spaces. Love all the different ways people organize their collections.
I love to "snoop" though rooms this way as well... it's fun to see what others have done. Thanks for watching.
I am drooling all over that Mcintosh equipment, nice!!!

Awesome caves. Simon has a killer setup and great TH-cam channel 🤘
Cheers Brendan!
I am in awe of his set up!
Great video awesome rooms I'm going to get my room setup to send to you it's just figuring out how to do it but eventually I will it's a pretty good man cave can't wait to show it thank you again keep on spinning 🤘😛
I look forward to seeing picture of your man cave.
Wow that first mancave was cool. And it might be that I saw same looking amplifier that I haven. Though my is broken.
And that second one. Those speakers!!! I don't remember seeing those kind of.
Well all of them were really cool!!
mr. Finglish (Bäd English Recs)
Those speakers are really cool, for sure.
Jealous of these music rooms. Love the channel 👍🏻
Wow! Some excellent music rooms. Wish I had the space for the types of music rooms you showed on this video! Thanks to everyone for sharing!

Simon's channel is awesome. As a fellow Aussie & subscriber to his channel I can totally recommend his channel. Highly entertaining.
Cheers legend!
@@ExplosiveAction no problem Simon. Love your channel.
I only learned of his channel when he sent this images over, and of course subscribed. Simon seems like a solid guy!

@@Channel33RPM Yeah love em !
Lots of cool and inspiring music/media rooms indeed and very well organized too. :)
My entire house is a man cave!! 🎸🎸🎸
All of those music rooms look awesome. Especially the first movie/music, super fantastic. 🤘🏻🎃
McIntosh has a lab near me, I got to listen in the sound test room, wow!
That would be very cool. I imagine it would sound insanely amazing.
Wow !!!!!!!! McIntosh heaven.

No doubt - very cool.
That’s like my old bedroom looked like before I down sized to apartment lol 😂
I have individual dividers for each of the artists in my record collection.
Chris’s space is very clean too. I want to go there and pull one of his records a 1/2 inch out of place. Just to screw with him;)

@ExplosiveAction Killer room and collection! I laughed when I saw the Rotted sticker because I just got Pestilent Tomb a few weeks ago.
@@Astulock86 album rules! I think the sticker came in my copy.
I would submit pics but that would necessitate dusting!
a question for you is it ortofawn or ortophone which is really correct. I know do you? spelling is for sounding.
I asked their marketing manager directly a month or 2 back... the answer was orto-phone. I prob said fawn in this video.
yes sir correct
I replaced paper sleeves the slow and lazy way. Whenever I played an LP without a poly sleeve it would get one.
That is generally what I do as well.
small rooms and great big speakers do they ever learn 😂
How do we submit pictures of our record rooms?
There is some info at the end of the video. I also added this below the video:
