Otherwise, if you feel some edge that may produce a tear later, any if the above will do, preferably wood glue or nail polish that matches with d... | |

| Does Age Matter? No it does not, my simple answer as not all aged ones have an RTR deck or cassette. On the other hand it is more difficult and costlier for a young one to built a respectable vinyl collection. Digital is easier to operate, sounds good, and is very... | |
