(BTW, there is a very simple but effective way of cleaning old vinyls. You coat them with wood working water soluble glue, spread it with a spatula, let it dry and then peel the glue off. All the dirt comes off with the glue.
If you want a clearer understanding of this, there is a YouTube video
I thought this was supposed to have gone OT, but the idea of cleaning vinyls (of which I have a lot, old and knew) with water soluble glue sounds horrific to me. A specific reference would be helpful.
I've got about a hundred old LP's. CD's are good. The sound is pure(er), but for us that are old as dirt, the sound from a good record player ............... there's just something special about it. I've got a Sony turntable that plugs into my computer so I can record old records and burn to CD. Great because I can listen to the music and not put more wear and tear on the records.
Since I'm on the subject whether the sound of cd's is either "good" or "pure(er) is debatable at best. Another canard is that records wear out by being played, play them on a properly set up turntable and it will not happen. But as I said OT for this list. Mike
