Is the Last Record Preservative system a worthwhile investment?
I'm slowly working my way through cleaning all my records in an Audio System machine, and just came across one with the LAST sticker on the label. Can I clean it like any other record? Will the LAST treatment come off and befoul my cleaning soluti... 
How are we wiring our Mono systems?
I guess I thought playing only mono records was implied so sorry I didn't mention it. Yes, a system for playing mono records (a mix of Classical, Pazz, and Jop from the '40s through the '60s). I've listened to mono recordings (vinyl and digital)...

Which cartridge for Graham 2.2 arm?

The Black Keys: Where to Start
