Back when I used to buy records, I didn't really care too much about sound quality either.
My set up was Technics 1210 Mk2 into a Rane TM56 mixer into a cheapie Denon amp with some Denon speakers. I used Shure M44-7's.
For me it was what records I could get my hands on that others couldn't (I used to DJ). I had the advantage of working in a record shop at the time. Unfortunately some months I hardly took home any wages as it all went on records.
I no longer have a record player, or mixer, or amp / speakers, but I still own over 2,500 12" s. It's quite silly really.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
So why don't we call CDs Polycarbs?
I love playing vinyl and used to collect different coloured vinyl in the 70s Yes, they were still called records but I don't mind the term vinyl.

The answer is 1931, because before that it was just called a guitar.

People get far too hung up on "sound quality". A great song played on a dansette is still a great song.
"Vinyls" is not.
If you call a turntable a "vinyl player" I will hunt down and kill you.
