    Personally, much as I enjoy LPs - their very physical presence, the sheer nostalgia of them, and their fascinating history - I believe the vinyl bubble will burst relatively soon. BTW, I share your interest in the violin repertoire, esp. concertos. You might consider sharing the history of your interest in same along with some of your favorites.

    I'd be interested in hearing what your opinion of the Bach violin sonatas with Zuzana Ruzickova is. She's a wonderful harpsichordist, though she would be considered old-fashioned by some. Just in case you aren't aware, she wrote an autobiography which tells of how she rather miraculously lived despite being in concentration camps during WW II.

    Try this experiment... rip that same LP to your computer using the best gear you have access to. Or send it out to pro ripping service. Play those files in a low end dac. Or rip them to cd. Play that. And compare to lp playing live and that same commercial Mahler 2 cd. Chances are highly likely that cd was not well mastered for cd format. I have a vpi-19 `table, Rega rb300 arm and Sumiko bp Special mc cartridge. Phono preamp is Van Alstine fet-valve. And this and my previous phono systems have mostly sat idle since early 1986 when I purchased my first digital playback device. A low end but good-sounding Philips cd player. Since then, pc file playback of flac or wav, some cd rips, other highrez, some vinyl rips. Thru sub-$1000 dac like Musical Fidelity, Theta, Schiit, Denafrips, diy, etc. 50 years of hifi'ing convinces me that ... Final mastering -- even if it is cassette or 8 track--guided by mastering engineer is the most important factor, all else held equal.

    CD CZ-800 knock off cartridge, ruby stylus, no dampening and tiny speakers, hence very poor sound quality. Tracks around 6 grams, but using a diamond stylus would reduce wear. Far better to save up for an AT LP 60 with powered speakers or start to build a vintage set up within your budget.

      Pop music generally fills the sound stage and imperfections are less noticeable than classical music which can have quiet passages. All the same my experience is that pop records are on average worse than classical for condition when bought from charity sources. The exception is popular classics type records (eg strauss waltzes) bought by the masses.

    It’s a shame that the records need returning, but I think you are doing the right thing. And your turntable doesn’t need upgrading, it’s good enough for many years of listening pleasure…if anything I would consider different speakers, there’s good offers on Fyne Audio F500 speakers currently, around £500 which I think would be a considerable sound improvement but they would need to be on stands, though if you are happy with what you have then why change anything! Rooms have much impact on HiFi quality, yours does not look ideal, but hey, we have what we have and we make the best of it.

    Thanks for that illuminating video. I have the Eclipse fake stereo (ECS 518) of Erich Kleiber's deservedly famous Beethoven 5th Symphony and it sounds marvellous. A word of caution about playing back mono on modern stereo equipment. To get the best sound, with minimal background noise, you need a true mono cartridge or some way of altering the wiring to convert stereo to mono (you can buy such equipment) or have an amplifier which has a mono switch. On the other hand, I have Lympany's mono LXT recordings of Rachmaninov's Preludes and they still sound very good using the mono switch on my circa1989 Yamaha amplifier, and preferable to the fake stereo Eclipse re-issue.

  • @nattyco
    @nattyco 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I scrub the record with liquid clothes washing soap and distilled water using a goat hair brush. I scrub quite hard, working along the grooves. I then rinse off with distilled water plus some surfactant and vacuum dry. It works well with most records. The important thing with using all these soap/foam methods is to rinse well afterwards, otherwise residue can build up on the stylus and cause worse noise and even distortion.

  • @chuckmaddison2924
    @chuckmaddison2924 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I believe it has improved. Another suggestion try a different stylus. If it's spent it's life with a point contact cone or elliptical try a line contact. In theory it will ride on the good part of the groove over the damaged. With fluids just keep away from " hot " fluids like methylated spirit as removes everything even the plasticisers resulting in a brittle vinyl.

    The sound quality of the Original Source releases have really impressed me. I have been able to compare a couple OS releases to minty originals, on my system the OS are a large improvement over originals. They are pricy but holy crap do they sound amazing! Worth the price for pieces I really want to hear in the best audio quality available. It would be incredible if some classic Decca releases were given a similar treatment.

    What makes me laugh are the ridiculous prices that some sellers charge, and that people will pay, for performances that are not even good. Only being interested in the label is incomprehensible to me. Sometimes, particularly in 1950's solo recordings, like Lympany and Heifetz, the original Mono can sound very good and the artificially processed Stereo remake can sound awful. Yet many collectors will simply pay more for the stereo because they assume it will be better. I often wonder if some collectors ever listen to their records, or if they do if their ears are actually functioning or even know what Classical music should sound like.

    I'm seeing a few comments here and I can understand where they're coming from, but I don't think the noise is overpowering. It may have been visually graded and looks EX. He may have play graded it with a different system and quite possibly didn't pick that up. Either way, it's not overpowering. If it's just that little part and quietens going forward, I wouldn't say there has been a great lessening of sound quality. If it looks EX and you're happy with the majority of it, then I don't feel it's been graded incorrectly. You say side A is in nice shape? I'd stick with it. Give it a good another good clean and see if it improves. I think you can live with it.
