Do vinyl LPs wear out? The Audiophiliac takes on that myth

” As for wear-induced noise, most of that comes from playing records with a worn-out or damaged stylus (aka needle) that’s literally gouging the grooves with each play. Any decent cartridge will play records without damaging the groove. Just make sure the stylus tracking force is set to the cartridge manufacturer’s recommendation. A force setting that’s too high or too low can accelerate record wear and noise.”

Acoustic Signature WOW XL Turntable with TA-1000 Tonearm Review
February 24, 2016 Comments Off on Acoustic Signature WOW XL Turntable with TA-1000 Tonearm Review
” I’ve been able to hear Anne Bisson play live and unamplified on a number of occasions and most recently at TAVES 2015. Playing the song “Hoping Love Will Last” from her album Blue Mind, the WOW XL setup brought remarkable authenticity to Anne’s voice. There was delicacy and nuance but also strength in the vocals, giving her palpable substance. The overall tone was full and complete but in no manner over-ripe. Accompanying her voice, the WOW XL depicted cymbal strikes delicately with an airy shimmer that lent to authenticity and the piano possessed believable warmth with key strokes radiating a honey-like sweetness.”

” ’ve used the older version of the record cleaner for several years, though I’ve run into some mechanical issues with it recently. The looks of the new unit are pretty much the same as the prior model, apart from a larger and more ergonomically friendly plug that holds the water in (the manufacturer recommends changing the water about once a month). The new Audiodesk PRO continues to use rollers and a custom surfactant to clean and massage your beloved LPs.”
