Got my Wu Tang today, it's not as bad as MV or Outkast but the crackle is there and it's all I hear!! 0/3 what a run!

Anyone hear any news on the Outkast? Are they just hoping that everyone forgets?

They said in my email where I asked for a Wu replacement that they are still “investigating”

Like OJ searching for the real killer?

I just heard the rumoured identity of their lead investigator

Anyone share a sample of Wu Tang yet? I definitely have a right channel repetitive crackle issue on Side A. Not sure what the best way to share audio clips on here is though. Anyone know?

 

[zdkaiser]

So for anyone who guessed and wanted "The Moon and Antarctica" for the Essentials ROTM just pick up the currently available pressing. Surface noise on side a so far so it's like the VMP experience without VMP pricing!

I have a copy of this pressed at United from probably 10 years ago and it sounds very good. Maybe United was more on point a decade ago?

I think most people upload to Imgur and then share the link here.

Here is a sample of my right channel noise on side A of Wu Tang. It is present from the run in through the second song at least. Sorry not the greatest recording but I think the defect is clear enough.

They’re insane if they claim that’s a sample.
Like, straight up

Definitely, even though it is obvious otherwise, the fact that it is also present in the run in proves it unquestionably.

 

[Andy]

Exactly. I’ve never had skipping problems with any new records, it’s basically a set up thing or a dirty ass record thing almost all of the time in my experience

Unless it’s a pressing defect. Definitely had gritt embedded into the record before, not shifting it however many times you clean.

 

[feesrevenge]

Man, I hate that you all are having issues. I was hoping to come here and see a lot of praise.

I haven’t listened all the way through yet but I dropped the needle on side A and it was clean as a whistle. I was absolutely amazed. There is a slight warp but nothing to complain about.

Yeah sometimes, but it's a lot rarer than people claim for sure. I feel like most of those skipping complaints you see are just setup related or dirt related.

Holy shit Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music in Throwback Thursday.

Edit I just now realized I posted this in the wrong thread, d'oh.

That has probably sitting under a furnace for a couple of years.

I kick myself for selling that one quite a bit. It’s a great album but I also needed cash!
