pmancini100 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 the one gripe i have with wilco vinyl is that all their albums come on 4 sides. too much getting up and flipping. but its worth it. trace on vinyl would be sick. i wanna pick up strangers almanac Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FilthyRich Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 That being said, I cannot believe how unfortunate it is that the Ashes of American Flags / Heavy Metal Drummer transition is completely lost due to having to switch records. What a buzzkill! I blame Bennett and his "mixing problems." --Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The process! I don't have a fancy enough Hi-Fi to make the vinyl sound 1000% better (though IMHO it does sound 200% better), but the physicality of it, the ritual of the needle falling into the groove, and getting to know that I am a part of the process really sweetens the vinyl experience for me. Strangers Almanac is gorgeous on vinyl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I'm sure this has already been discussed but what do people use to clean their LP's? I usually just use distilled water and isopropyl mixed about 50/50. This system looks great but it's a bit expensive for my needs. Anybody have any experience with it? http://www.nittygrittyinc.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody have any experience with it? http://www.nittygrittyinc.com/ That works great, but it is expensive. Go to www.stevehoffman.tv/forums and search around there - I am not sure where exactly it is, but there is a bunch of info on cleaning records there, many obsessive collectors giving their own techniques. The Nitty Gritty is a great tool, but not 100% necessary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

absolutyyz Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 so they have now been delayed to august 2nd! when will the madness end? at least the new album leaked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
replacements75 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I'm curious if the reissues were delayed due to first the Ashes DVD and now the new album. I know us die hard fans will buy em but some less rabid fans might need to spread their purchasing power further especially in this economic climate. Sales of the new material are more important to the record companies I would think and they might want to postpone anything that might decrease it. IE delaying the reissues in favor of releasing the new stuff. I am looking forward to these reissues but either way as Absolutyyz said at least the new album leaked!!!

Guest Speed Racer Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Anybody see this weekly drawing for Wilco pre-order folks? One of the prizes is the complete catalog on CD or vinyl. Think this is final word that they're happening pretty soon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Technics made/makes some good tables. Depending on what you have, you might want to just upgrade your cartridge. Look on Audiogon.com Look on stevehoffman.tv for advice, do a search there.

I really liked it, though I could hear its limitations by the end of the time I had it. A solid table though. I would definitely upgrade the cartridge on it - I like the Ortofon 2M Red or Blue myself. Its a good "starter" if you are moving up from a not so great Technics.
