| Is it questionable to buy new popular music on LP? I have Radioheads "in Rainbow" in CD and in vinyl, there is a clear difference in the quality of the playback. I prefer the sound of the lp so any investment in time etc is worth it to me. I suppose if all things were equal though I would play the... | |
| DIY Record Cleaning Solution What do you mean "isopropyl will harden vinyl", how so? This is the first I ever heard of this. I have been using isopropyl for awhile without any problems. Do you have any other information or source for this? Not that I doubt you, but I don't wa... | |
| Best pressings I've heard I just got off EBay myself and found a box set similar to the one I have (different music) i think I got it for $5- plus s&h. I hope the quality is the same. The pressings i have seem to be 200gram or thereabouts. very heavy. E- come on up we'... | |
| What Vinyl quality should I be using? I have found great quality music on most vinyl formats. Some hold up better, won't warp as easy, etc. As far as cleaning your records, I have recently found the steaming method to be beyond reproach, although labor intensive. I don't believe an au... | |
| What Vinyl quality should I be using? Hi-I also am fairly new to this audiophile thing-although it has pretty much consumed my life for the past year or so. I recently got back into vinyl after not playing since my teenage years (70's). There are many threads with loads on info on ent... | |
| newbie, disappointed, curious.. after sleeping on it I agree with you folks- no blood no foul. I am fortunate that he backed out as soon as he did, before I actually sent it. I still would never back out on a deal I made unless the circumstances were beyond my control. Thank you... | |

| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Sony X77ES CDP to Krell Stealth DAC is a very nice sounding combo- but compared to my KAB Technics? They are 2 different animals, both good but definetly diferent. | |
| Your 5 Fav Rock Concerts hd74man-I remember the Alice Cooper concert- I was working a roller rink in Medford Ma and Alice Cooper rented it for a party about 1a.m. about him and 100 people all messed up skating around to "I'm 18". Also- saw Deep Purple at the Boston Common... | |
| How critical is the exact placement of the tonearm I don't believe anyone said the hole had to have that tolerance. There is play within the hole to adjust the arm to that tolerance which can be achieved with micrometers and other measuring tools. The actual drilled hole would have a much greater ... | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green neither.......Muddy Waters, you did say blues guitarist. I think Clapton is more rock. If you really want the blues, give Muddy a try. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I have not heard a speaker that is more accurate, better soundstaging, more lifelike and just a pleasure to listen too than the Alon 1's. If properly setup they are mesmerizing- too the point of disbelief that the music is coming from them. I have... | |
