thinking of vinyl

[ryoohki]

While waiting to get my Pro-Ject Debut III and Cambridge 640p Phono Stage. My friend loaned me a very good Technics 1983 turnable with brand new stylus on it. I'am listening to Madonna Immaculate collection.... and WOW never heard her sound that good on my receiver.. and i still don't have my stage yet! I bought like 15 album (New and Used) all the 180g, 45rpm Metallica, Hard Candy, 1 Cranberries album (rare) etc... i got several coming from Ebay. Even got my hand of Just Be from Tiesto (LOL 4LP!).

Vinyl have more dynamic range imho. that why it sound different. A lot of time CD have it's dynamic range compressed, not always but most of them. if you listen to them at the good volume, they sound more open and 'live' than CD

New Vinyl don't pop! Old ones need a good cleanup. Me and my friend are gonna buy the cleanup machine of a used vinyl, most of them are perfect without scratch but they have deposit on the sillion witch cause pop and crack.

Pro-Ject Debut 3 + Cambridge 640p Phono Stage is a very good start for about 525$...

Older disc Pop and crack, but can be cleaned. The machine + Cleaning Solution cost, but it's worth it imho if you are 2-3 on the same same it drag the price down.
