Crate Digger's Challenge II - BYOV: Bring Your Own Vinyl

The Crate Digger's Challenge: Volume 2 (BYOV)📍 Music To My Ear / Northern Audio – 3003 Babcock Blvd., Pittsburgh, PA

📅 Saturday, September 20th, 12:00 PM

Get ready for round two of the Crate Digger's Challenge—but this time, with a twist: Bring Your Own Vinyl!

We’re taking the handcuffs off and letting you dig into your own crates. Each participant will select five records to compete in a 16-person bracket-style tournament (8 on each side). Bring your best-sounding vinyl—surprise us with classics, deep cuts, or something rare and unexpected.

🎶 How it works:

• Each match-up features head-to-head listening rounds.
• Competitors bring 5 records (extras for backup if you make it to the finals).
• The crowd votes on each round—so bring your A-game.
• Winner receives a $100 gift card to Music To My Ear, plus the admiration of fellow audiophiles.

Don’t have the right records in your collection? No problem—we’ve got plenty of audiophile-grade vinyl in-store that can help you step into the competition.

👥 Not competing? Come enjoy the showdown, discover amazing new music, and stick around after the tournament—we’ll open the floor for bonus spins of crowd favorites and hidden gems.

🎟️ Admission is free, but space is limited. Competitor slots are capped at 16, so sign up early to secure your place in the bracket.

Join us for an afternoon of friendly competition, serious listening, and vinyl discoveries at Music To My Ear / Northern Audio.
