Be sure to get a record brush.

Thanks Av.

Be sure to get a record brush.

Will something like a LCD cloth work? I have a few more new ones but dont want to open them until i get some plastic sleeves to keep the dust off. I also stopped by the record store today and picked up a few used LP's for dirt cheap...

Aerosmith - Toys in the Attic - $2
Eagles - Eagles - $4
Jethro Tull - Stormwatch - $4

I would invest in some kind of carbon fiber brush.

I think they are around $20-30

Comes with a poster. Looks great, already have mine.

^ yeah, i nearly bought that just now but thought i should check my collection first - turns out i already have a copy.

Shit, totally forgot that i would need a receiver... which i'm guessing will set me back another $150-200.

Check out the RCA/Optimus SA-155. They are tiny little receivers/amplifiers but very powerful. You can pick one up on eBay for like $20-$40. As long as you aren't trying to blast your music at ridiculous volumes, these are great. Awesome little receiver for personal home use.
The only semi-bad thing about them is they have RCA output for the speakers, but you can pick up RCA speaker cables at any RadioShack or even make your own.

[wretchedrecords]

The Joel Grind album is "Follow & Believe" 7 inch limited to 135

HOLY SHIT that Revenant album. Probably one of my favorite albums. That must have cost quite a bit

HOLY SHIT that Revenant album. Probably one of my favorite albums. That must have cost quite a bit

A lot less than the one that's listed on eBay 'buy it now' right now!!

Great fucking album though, worth every penny. Regardless.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Those Vektor albums are so sexy.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

...that Warbgringer LP is by far my nicest looking disc.

edit: My Toxic Holcoaust vinyl got here today too, but it wasnt sealed and the disc was seperate, in its white sleeve ... weird.

 

[Podgie]

Sometimes records are shipped outside of their sleeves. A lot of people choose to store them that way, too. (I actually don't reeeally know why, but yeah.)

Cool looking splatter vinyl anyway. I only really like Waking into Nightmares from Warbringer though, and the debut has its moments)

 

[End of Glory]

That Amongst the Catacombs were pretty sick man!

 

[wretchedrecords]

My Toxic Holcoaust vinyl got here today too, but it wasnt sealed and the disc was seperate, in its white sleeve ... weird.

yeah I ship records that way to avoid damage to the sleeve. A lot of times during shipping the record will slide around in the sleeve and the weight will cause ringwear/splits.

 

[wretchedrecords]

just received another few massive orders

most of these are already up on the ebay page/website
