It only bothers me when I actually hear wow. For my ears, piano and violin sections are particularly sensitive to what wow does -- cause a regular, cyclical alteration of pitches. Hate it! I might say, too, that I have some 45 singles where the center hole is so off-center it's as if Beetlejuice is gleefully slowing down the turntable with his thumb. It's one of the things that put me at the edge of my seat waiting for Compact Discs to come on the market.
LP's: the measure of off-centre record spindle holes ?
Good day. On the basis some are more sensitive to pitch than others, the measure of how far off centre spindle holes can be before they affect enjoyment of music will of course vary. I'd be curious if there is something like consensus on this dimension from the seasoned LP lovers on the forum ?
