New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener?


Anyone tried one of these here yet, and your impressions/review, please?

I think I would look to do it with the optional sleeve/heat system myself.

How do you get warped records?
I don't know about you, Stringreen, but both my used and new LP retailers provide them @ no extra charge ;~) In fact, it's the flat ones that cost extra, since you have to return the bloody things a half-dozen times to get a one that isn't warped !!! As I remember (not so sure; it was late 60s when I started buying lots of LPs) it has always been that way.
SonofJim- It either works or it doesn't. Your opinion is good enough for me. Sounds much less complicated that a dry mount press, which is basically what the Furutech is. AS for any changes in sound, the basic question, IMO, is whether it makes an unplayable or severely compromised LP and makes it playable. if it does, and has a minor impact on sound, then so be it.
Ripple warp- check
Dish warp- Let's see.
Only thing let would be a pinch warp which of course would probably be the hardest to address.
Let us know.
