Finally set up my cheap eBay Ultrasonic RCM tonight after looking at the box for nearly 2 years. Shakedown cruise was on 2 really old, beat to $hit records that were handed down to me by my sisters who are now in their early 70s. First one up is...
John Lennon - "Imagine"
Confirmed, I still don't like it, but it does sound somewhat better than the last time I listened to it. Cleaning can't fix scratches, etc., but it was somewhat more quiet.
|
Next out of the URCM is Crosby Stills and Nash - S/T. Beat up, original, beat up copy from 1969. Lots of scratches, but more listenable than I remember from pre-Ultrasonic cleaning. Musically excellent.
|
Ramsey Lewis - "Wade in the Water" - mono
|
Danny and the Fat Boys - "American Music"
Fantastic!
|
@slaw - Should have set up the US RCM a long time ago. I thought it would be more complicated than it turned out to be. Need to go back and read some of the old threads about folks process/procedures.
|
The Doobie Brothers - "What Were Once Vices are now Habits"
|
Willie Nelson - "Willie and Family Live"
Really fantastic record. Probably my favorite Willie Album...

Playing a new copy that replaces my unfortunately beat up origin. Holy cow! Sounds great!

Gerry Rafferty - "City to City"
|
Steve Earle - "El Corazon"
|
Jellyfish - "Bellybutton"
"listener edition - cut from the original analog tapes"
Good album, but the sound quality is not great. I’ve cleaned it 3 times. Noticed it was covered in something, and it now looks clean and plays quiet. But the sound quality is not as good as the CD or streaming versions IMHO. Wonder if I should try to return it?
|
@bdp24 - Yep, those original Jellyfish LPs are quite valuable. Wish I bought them back in the day. And wish I saw them live too...
@slaw - My copy of "Bellybutton" is the 2023 reissue - UMe – B0038585-01. I had been looking for a copy of one of the early 1990 releases, but they are WAY too expensive. Was really happy when I saw it was reissued, but wish the SQ was better.
