    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    Go to the local music supply store and get Moongel blue sticky drum-damping pads. It's apparently basically the same as an ONZOW ZeroDust but is only like $10. I've been using it and it works beautifully. Magic Erasers do not work very well in my experience.

    Equipment Recommendations - The Home For New System and Upgrade Advice

    Yeah, I've just decided to move up the Nagaoka model line, probably to the 150 which can use the 200's stylus. I was looking around a bit since the 110's inner groove tracking has been bothering me, but it seems the 150 tracks fine and for my taste you just can't beat Nagaoka's tonality.

    Anyone have opinions on Nagaoka MP-110 or other Nagaoka carts vs the Grado Opus 3?

The sound gets lower-resolution at the start and end of a track. Weird effect. But I like knowing I'm using one of...

    This Is Jeopardy! (Halloween Edition): The October 2023 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread

    October 15 The shoulda-been-dead-already killer in this movie franchise is a hooker. This album came out when the title of the movie hints. Oops, meant to try and catch-up and post in order but I fear being scooped, I think this is the only thing I have that fully fits the prompt. EDIT...

    This Is Jeopardy! (Halloween Edition): The October 2023 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread

    October 5 This album/song is about the death of love, much like this wrapped up undead man who was only trying to resurect his ancient dead lover. I must be in a hip-hop mood lately, for some reason "Looking at the Front Door" was the first track to come to mind. Main Source - Breaking Atoms

    This Is Jeopardy! (Halloween Edition): The October 2023 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread

    October 3 This vampire famously sucked blood to live forever, whereas this album is by a band that many people think just sucks and won't die. I'm with Turbo on this; I don't buy albums I don't intend to listen to, and my first impulse with this question is to try and find an album that I...

    This Is Jeopardy! (Halloween Edition): The October 2023 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread

    October 3 This doctor assembled his monster from body parts belonging to other people, this album is by a band made up of members who typically belong to other bands. Maybe this one doesn't quite count since it's two solo artists, and this is perhaps the album the both of them are best known...

    Santigold - Came across "L.E.S. Artistes" years ago in a mashup and had it knocking around my head ever since. Happened to listen to the rest of the album on a whim earlier this year, really liking it, so appreciated VMP reissuing it. Maybe it won't hold up over time, I feel like I'm the only...
