Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free?
Atmosphere, obviously some uncompressed LP can have have more dynamic range than overly compressed CDs. However, a lot of LPs are overly compressed, too. It’s difficult to make generalizations. Even SACDs and hi res downloads are being aggressivel... 
Graphite for shelves, loudspeaker cases?
If memory serves DH Squares and DH shelves from Golden Sound are also a Graphite composite. 
Record weights what type would be good for a Luxman PD171-A
I’ll take the Shun Mook Mpingo record weight. You guys and gals can fight over the rest of them. 🥊

Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
@jburidan when I use the term seismic vibration or seismic type vibration I’m referring to Earth crust motion (microseismic activity), as well as other very low frequency vibration produced by other sources, as I just explained. In urban areas car... 
Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
jburidanIf tonearms and cartridges are engineered to have resonant frequencies circa 10-12 Hz, then it’s absolutely illogical to conclude that isolating the turntable from seismic frequencies will reduce vibration of the tonearm and cartridge. Wha... 
Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free?
OK, let me put it a different way. Digital has the potential for much greater Signal to Noise Ratio and Dynamic Range than analog. I really don’t foresee analog system getting any better than 70 dB. But digital systems can achieve 90+ dB (potentia...
