The need for 2 phono inputs - AMAZING RECORD COLLECTION FIND!

hjames said:
And about 2 phono inputs - don't most DJs actually use a MIXER as the input to their power amps,
so they can segue between different records/different tracks or even partially mix them simultaneously for special results?

Yep probably. I'm not looking to mix anything yet, just a quicker way to keep the songs coming without long breaks of silence while changing 45's. Much better if I have a party or even a music listening session with friends.
 
Some vintage stereos have dual phono inputs. that's one thing I love about my Kenwood kr4400. Dual inputs for two photographs.

What is a collection like this worth, I mean what should I have paid for it? (Hope I paid a good price).

Aw, Jeez, Homer...Don't sweat whether or not you paid too much, or got the score of the decade. It's done, and you've got a neat collection. To me, even the battered cases have a value and provenance that should be considered in the valuation.
It might be easier if you just spilled the beans and told us what you paid? Then, all of us armchair appraisers can do our thing.
I suspect you did very well, don't you?

I have acquired a lot of albums that the covers are shot/damaged, but the vinyl is pristine--I consider that part of the "history" or "patina"--still play like new, and I don't listen to the sleeves.

Any idea what value I should insure it for?

I don't know why you feel you need to insure this

Well from what you'v showed us not a lot as it looks like most of it is 45s, bulk buying at .25 each. Most 45s in a record store are about a buck, some can be 5 bucks depending, some rare one can be hundreds of dollars.

Your the one that needs to ID what each record is worth looking on Discogs first to find you copy.
