Hello All! I am 36 and live in Vermont with my family in a classic 3 bedroom colonial box. In my basement is my home office and game/movie room. I have been watching laserdiscs since the mid 90's. I had a teacher who ran our schools AV lab and had a killer home theater setup. I've had a laserdisc player and a few discs since 2000 or so, but since building my house in 2015 i've really had the space to expand my collection a bit; buying several lots on craigslist locally. I have a player hooked up downstairs through composite downstairs, about 200 or so discs. The ones in nice shape i put in sealed plastic sleeves after i watch them (and clean the disks). Upstairs, my pride and joy is my Pioneer DVL-909. I have the S-Video out to an HDMI upscaler, and the Coax AC3 into a Yamaha demodulator, which goes into a Sony STR-DN1080. I watch the movies regularly, along with VCD, VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray and the occasional digital Look forward to meeting folks on here and learning more about the format and collecting.

Have some doubles set aside for trading and an extra backup player which aren't pictured. Quite nice. If you want to take a look, my collection page is updated and I might be interested in trading stuff I don't care about to much for some of those doubles if there is something I would want.

Forget about within an hours drive, we likely like 5 minutes away from each other Small freaking world! I got about 300 or so LD's, despite what my profile on here says (I'm a bit lazy about adding things).

You look up a disc on the main site and then click "Add to my collection?" Is there a faster way? haha
