    UHQR 45rpm Steely Dan---7 early titles---announced last week--ordered them all.

    When it comes to musical taste I have no doubt I'm in a very small minority, but I wouldn't mind seeing what other titles are available.

    Isolation Question- getting low frequency feedback

    Try moving your TT away from the sound of your speakers (another room, for example) or build a temporary sound proof enclosure for it. A lot cheaper than scraping your current TT project.

    Audio feedback

    Must not be very important to anyone here.

    Tonearm height & SRA misconception

    You’re right. Sorry. I live near Los Angeles.

    Audio feedback

    People here have some amazing systems. I'll assume they take their sound seriously. When I was digitizing some vinyl once, during a very quiet passage I could hear people in the room talking. It was coming through the cartridge into my headphones. In an earlier thread I related steps my father...

    Tonearm height & SRA misconception

    I just replaced the cart on my Music Hall 9.1. If I knew someplace where I could have it set up properly, I'd pay the money. I don't, and I don't want to ship.

    Another should I add vinyl thread

    I digitize my vinyl so I can play it in the car. No, I don't have a high end car system. Plus the music I listen to is noisy, to say the least. I have a Music Hall MMF 9.1 and a recently replaced Denon DL-103R cart. It doesn't break the bank. I am using a center weight and periphery clamp...

    Vinyl sleeves

    I’ve been pulling and tossing my MoFi sleeves due to a haze they are leaving on the discs. I started a thread on this a while back and apparently this is more common than one may suspect.

    RCM's are dead, hire this guy instead !

    Not really my preferred method for cleaning a record but in the past I have run them under a faucet, dish soap etc. In Thailand my bro in law gave me some records. One 45 rpm was so bad I had to pull it off the tt as quickly as I could. It looks more destroyed by 1/4 lb VTF than dirty. I may...

    Found new open box KL Audio Record Cleaner on sale

    You say you've had both. I'd be interested in your comments on them and why you prefer one over the other.

    Found new open box KL Audio Record Cleaner on sale

    I see it's been discontinued, a great reason to buy it and save money. It says no special cleaners or detergents. Does that mean it uses only distilled water? I only ask because I wouldn't rule out buying one myself.

    MFSL inner sleeves

    Short follow-up, I heard back from MFSL. They said they had a few other reports of this and it is most likely excessive humidity or some such nonsense. They obviously didn't read or ignored my message when I pointed out it's only their sleeves that are offending. I wouldn't expect much more...

    Record Cleaning Machines

    I'm not sure why I didn't find those results. I will certainly use one of them, I'm sure. Thanks very much for your help !!

    Record Cleaning Machines

    Out of my entire collection I probably have about 200 units that need a thorough cleaning. Some are quite valuable. I know there are people who deep clean brand new LP's but I don't really think it's necessary. If anyone knows of a service that will clean LP's, in a nice , ultrasonic machine...

    MFSL inner sleeves

    As I said, I use a cheap, Allsop Orbitrac to give my records a quick wipe. I use an 80/20 distilled water/alcohol mix and it comes right off. Not like it’s etching them. I sent a message to MFSL about this. We’ll see what they say, if they reply at all. Also, I’ve used some generic inners and...
