Do you think LP needs break-in to sound its best?


Most of the time brand new LP sounds fine, but when I listen to it several times after, it seems to sound better. I guess it could be psychological. What is your experience?

I only use 78 rpm records. The good thick stuff from 1897.
I always keep one in my trunk for a spare tire.
To greatly improve the sound quality of your new vinyl records, go outside into your driveway on a warm sunny day with your new records, thusly remove from the sleeves and place the records on the hood of your car for exactly forty three minutes, no more, no less. The warmth of the sun will slightly widen and deepen the grooves resulting in the stylus sinking deeper and tighter into the groove producing far superior music playback. Wagner will never sound better!
Audiolui..you must be a budding Audiophile and there is nothing wrong with that. Audiophiles are well aware that there is slight residue in the record grooves from the cutting stylus in a record factory that will clear out after several plays. Thats about it.
