My favorite Vinyl I own is The Rolling Stones- Some Girls, with the original faces. : ok: Title: Re:Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Chris Misfit on July 26, 2004, 02:32:05 AM I have about 100 albums on vinyl, too many to name.
I also have loads of 12", 7", 10". About 50 Guns N Roses if I remember rightly. About 20 Iron Maiden, and about 10 Metallica and around 20 of other bands. I've only added to my collection once in the last two years, but as soon as I get a vinyl player and remember how great it sounds, I'll start collecting bits and pieces again. Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Megaguns on January 06, 2006, 07:15:03 AM anyone who doesnt own appetite for destruction on vinyl doesnt know what theyre missing, I have heaps of gunners and megadeth and maiden and shit, but i have them on cd too. just sounds better on record, maybe just a little faster??? I LOVE IT!!!!!! anyone else??
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: -Jack- on January 06, 2006, 07:17:51 AM Is it really that noticable? Can someone "describe" the sound without saying "its just cooler"?
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Megaguns on January 06, 2006, 07:20:59 AM its more distinct, a little quicker..... just. more real.... youd have to hear it and then come back. youll see ( or hear )
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Jonathan on January 06, 2006, 12:21:59 PM Is it really that noticable? Can someone "describe" the sound without saying "its just cooler"? Haha, yeah.. It's actually sounds warmer! :P Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Axls Locomotive on January 07, 2006, 09:16:58 PM Is it really that noticable? Can someone "describe" the sound without saying "its just cooler"? my ears sense that there is a richness in certain frequencies that transfer poorly to CD...particularly the sounds just below the voice range and also the higher frequencies...80's vinyl is excellent for sound....also old 78rpm records used to have a great bassier sound because of their heavy weight...i have a few 50's r'n'r records and they sounded far superior to the CD versions... if you could transfer sweet child to one of these 78's and play them on a 70's quadrophonic stereo you will probably shit yourself listening to how great the sound is...but that will never happen :( maybe you just have to listen closer to hear the differences Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: R4tfink on January 08, 2006, 05:00:55 PM Chris Misfit gave me the beauty of Vinyl, i never cared for it before meeting that cunt.
Now i have an LP player and my dad gave me all his old LP's bout 100 or so, including some Maiden and Zeppelin, Motorhead and Motley Crue. I'm also waiting to get my hands on my uncles old records, he was a Metal/Rocker like me and has loads of great Metal, Metallica, Suicidal Tendencies, Megadeth, Ozzy, Sabbath, Faith No More. Ooooo, i canny wait, i love how long it takes to take outta the sleeve and play it, theres a whole ritual to throwing on an LP and we all have a different way to do it. Fucking love Vinyl! :smoking: Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Carlos_f_Rose on January 08, 2006, 06:55:00 PM I dont own any Vinyl but certainly it has better sound than the CDs, thats why artists like Cradle Of Filth still release their albums in that format.
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: anythinggoes on January 09, 2006, 01:14:48 PM I dont own any Vinyl but certainly it has better sound than the CDs,? thats why artists like Cradle Of Filth still release their albums in that format. makes it sound better but fuck me its no miracle worker jeez :no: Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Carlos_f_Rose on January 09, 2006, 10:11:20 PM Well yes, but Cradle releases good albums. :yes:

Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Carlos_f_Rose on January 21, 2006, 02:34:42 AM Hope they release the album in vinyl dude... : ok:
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on January 21, 2006, 03:47:23 PM If you go on eBay, it's amazing how expensive GN'R's vinyl records are. ESPECIALLY the banned AFD sleeve.
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Hammy on January 21, 2006, 03:50:01 PM If you go on eBay, it's amazing how expensive GN'R's vinyl records are.? ESPECIALLY the banned AFD sleeve. patience dude, that's all you need prices rise and drop all the time, i got it off there for a small fee (can't quite remember...) definately under ?5 though....Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on January 21, 2006, 04:15:59 PM which single was it?
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Hammy on January 23, 2006, 12:05:47 PM which single was it? It wasn't a single that was for the Banned Appetite For Destruction sleeve.Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: kaasupoltin on January 23, 2006, 12:19:44 PM I have only Gn'R promos and bootlegs + AFD (banned cover), UYI 1 and Spaghetti.. But I really think that vinyl sounds better than CD :yes: Just waiting for my dad to die so I can take all his vinyls.. ummm.. just kidding :hihi:
Edit. I saw the banned AFD for 6,99? in Music Hunter today.. so just keep looking and you'll find it with a nice price. Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on January 23, 2006, 09:50:46 PM Was it just the sleeve? Or the record included, because if its only 5 euros, u made a steal. That's a good deal old chap.
Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Mattman on January 23, 2006, 10:04:11 PM What's the big deal about vinyl??? When CDs first came out, the main thing everybody said about them was "oooh, they sound so much better than records!" The whole point of CDs is that they have amazing sound quality and you can skip tracks. I've heard vinyl albums played, and the only difference I notice in the sound is that you hear the sound of a fucking needle spinning around on the LP. I think that if vinyl was really that much better than CDs, people wouldn't be listening to CDs - they'd be listening to vinyl.
You're livin' in the past, Marge. Quit livin' in the past! Title: Re: Vinyl - The Sound of Greatness Post by: Hammy on January 23, 2006, 10:46:48 PM What's the big deal about vinyl????

Not so CDs are smaller, you don't have to turn 'em over all the tracks fit on one side, you can listen to them in your car ,they don't get damaged/scratched as easily etc. tastes are different i prefer the sound personally as do many it wouldn't do for everyone to like the same things now would it :P Quit being such a teeny skater boi :P!....You're livin' in the past, Marge.? Quit livin' in the past! ...Garry it was sleeve and record and it was 5 Pounds not Euros, whatever the difference is :-\ |
