Here Today...
« on: January 07, 2015, 12:55:56 PM »
Hi guys, happy new year!

Got a turntable for Xmas, been playing all my old original gnr albums and ltd 12". I've looked for the old thread regarding sound issues with the CD LP, I'm in the UK, is it worth buying? The reviews I remember state that the pressing of the record are terrible, any help?

Many thanks,

Chilly

The issue reported is inner groove distortion.

As far as I remember, some listeners didn't notice it while others did.

You can also pick up (though they are pricey) an Ars Technical Microline stylus which will really help with ANY instances of inner groove distortion on any modern vinyl.

There may be newer (or alternative) versions out there...I picked up mine, back in 2009-ish, for around $200, on a suggestion from another HTGTH poster (russtcb).

Yup - I got me an Audio Technica stylus as well, and it made all my inner groove distortion woes a thing of the past. So, if you're still out there russtcb - thanks!
