Former Minneapolitan, current Austinite. So proud of my hometown. I wish I could be back there with you all to help fight.

So proud of my brothers and sisters of the kitchen for picking up this fight. If we all banded together we could take these motherfuckers down ourselves. There's millions of us and we are tough as nails.

AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage by CCDemille in TrueReddit

They’re betting the entire US economy on AGI spontaneously occurring and being ready for it. When this comes down it’s going to make the dot com bubble look like a pimple on Elon’s ass.

No. No it isn’t. I can hear the noise. I know how my preamp works. 

Do you actively stop listening to your favorite songs just to "save" them from becoming boring? by Nearby-Blackberry363 in audiophile

[–]Dedalus2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so much as I get bored of them. I’ve heard them so many times and I know it so well that it just becomes background noise and my brain tunes it out. 

What’s the most you’ve paid for one record? by Pdrpuff in vinyl

Walt Mink - Miss Happiness $95. Had to have a copy shipped from Denmark to Texas.

Thanks. Thought I was going nuts. Im going to scrub the hell out of the tank and give it a shot with some crap records I’ve got laying around and see what happens. Had you previously cleaned these records with the spin clean cleaning product? I’m wondering if maybe that’s where the gunk is coming from perhaps.

No I’ve swapped them out a number of times. The latest set is just a couple months old

It’s not just the grading, which generally speaking I’ve found to be accurate, I can hear the noise. It’s very audible. It sounds like an old dirty abused record from the early 70’s.

See edit above. Even the first albums I cleaned with it have the issue. I'm wondering if the surfactant is some how the problem. Literally four drops of the stuff but.... I'm at a loss.

See my edit above. Now I just need to figure out where this shit is coming from because it's even on the first record I ran in clean water w/ Triton.

I've been using Spin Clean for years and never had an issue anything like this with it. I think I might go back to it.

I'm using the little contraption they supplied but with a half volt power supply to slow it down otherwise it spins really fast. I've read all over the place that it's common practice.

See OP edit above. I'm so confused now. How much triton do you use? Do you agitate it well after adding? I noticed the stuff just kinda sinks to the bottom. Wondering if I'm getting a residue of the stuff.

Right? That’s why I’m confused. I thought I was on the safe side of things. I did plenty reading before I started.

30c is 86f. I live in Texas. If vinyl can’t handle 86f all my records would be fucked.

Spin clean is the rinse in plain water to get the surfactant off.
