  • do you need mono cartridges for mono records (specifically thinking because job soon makes me think "should i buy analogue productions mono pet sounds" despite owning pet sounds already on single LP)

    tbh i dont even know if my capital reissue is that bad.. its mostly just the feeling of getting the best of the best

    My mono is a capital repress and it’s quite good tbh, I don’t really have much interest in getting an audiophile one right now!

    maybe i mostly want the AP pressing because i wanted a taste of that sweet sweet audiophile perfection... and no other audiophile label things beyond some mofi and speakers corner (maybe ornette coleman ORG but i dunno) really clicked with me
    The one thing I'm not liking about the mofi sieves is the texture, they feel too thin (unlike the clear bag of my vmp pinkerton) and they easily get bunched up.. but I hear they are best for preservation

    Inner btw

    I like the thickness of paper and plastic.. like that touching it feels like there is a bit of friction.. that it feels thick and protective

    Go for @AnthonyI's suggestion or just the Diskeeper Audiophiles. I use the latter and MoFis and the Diskeeper Audiophiles are similar quality to the MoFis with considerably thicker paper in them. Ultimate audiophile is even more heavy duty with paper on the outside on both sides but I don't feel the need for the extra cost.

    Just don’t spend all that time spin cleaning and then stick em back in a paper only sleeve. I prefer the poly sleeves especially with colored wax as I feel like it presents better. Plus thicker isn’t necessarily better it all adds up. The more records you have the thicker the packaging means less shelf space.

    It’s a great album! I already have everything on the VMP version or I’d happily pick it up.

    I was out. Then this...agh I think I'm back in one month more. I love this album so much. I do already own it, but their version has the b-sides and live versions, and that has me hooked in.
    i either got a bad spin clean, am doing something wrong thats leaving the rollers rubber locking up the record... or i just dont like it

    Gotta keep both hands steady while spinning simultaneously

    my hands aren't steady you can see the record cleaning thread for the issue
    It's still weird that Justin Bieber goes on a little tangent about not being political on his bad guy remix
    My mom accidentally made me OCD about record or sleeves by giving me mofi.. all others don't feel as thicc and I dunno if I should spend the extra money

    because I need about 150 more to finish (I will buy standards box set boxes for my duster box set and Thom Yorke anima deluxe, was well as a single bundle and thing for 7inches and 10 inch)

    I've never felt the need for anything nicer than the ultimate 2.5 (except when the gatefolds are too thick to fit in). What do you like better about the mofis?

    I mean for every Pallas and record industry we need a Gz.. same with us, for every RTI we need a United.. if only we had more mid tier plants like say optimal too do bulk duty
    I got a spin clean, mofi outers (my mom meant to get inners), and the spiderman into the spiderverse OST

    duke86fan
    NOTE: the spiderverse OST is a picture disc (she bought it for me from target.. she said she wanted to get one with the full cover but i told her it was fine... though picture discs aren't great sounding its still awesome to have the soundtrack to one of my favorite movies)

    He did not ... Also, the show has been airing live on the west coast for several years now. 8:30-10. Great show with a lot of Eddie's old characters... And Lizzo killed it.

    I just realized we are going to have a big chunk shortage with rainbo gone.. Gz can't replace everything

    But the average quality level should increase!

    iirc other companies have bought up Rainbo's equipment, so it will eventually be put back into service.

    the thing is the more one plant has to do a ton of stuff the lower quality the plant will become...


    do you think Gz would have as bad quality control problems JUST because naturally bad... its because they have to press thousands of records

    no album will be as big of a mindfuck to me as trout mask replica...

    all other music seems simple after listening to it

    I didn't mean to imply you did, I just meant that I'd be ruined if I did!

    Yeah, I went back to Bitches Brew not long after experiencing Trout Mask Replica and had a much easier time following it. Am I being thick for not recognizing Machine Gun?

    Have you tried Decals? An easier listen than Trout Mask but just as good.

    Sweet Trip's Velocity: Design: Comfort is certainly polarizing. I really like it, but absolutely understand why others wouldn't enjoy the (somewhat jarring) transitions between shoegaze and IDM/glitch.

    I cried listening to K.Flay two days in a row. First off it isn’t supposed to be crying music and secondly, I’m not supposed to like pop music.

    i wonder if i should buy more 10 inches in the future (because having 50 10 inch sleeves when you only have 2 10" records seems stupid)

    i was wondering just because of that AND the fact there are only 2 7inches i still want (the rest are invisible or shit)

    I'm not big on 10". I have 2 currently. They're just too awkward to store in general. I like 7" better because of the collectibility and can store them all together in a smaller bin.
