As noted on the album jacket and record label, it takes a 'decoder' to play back this record. A noise reduction technology that seems to have been left in the dustbins of recorded music history. I don't find these very often, but the above record came my way without my having picked it out. It was just there in several boxes of records I acquired last fall. Just to be sure, I did play side one/band one briefly to confirm my ignorance. Yup, it sounds wierd without the decoder. Anyone have any experience with dbx encoded records? -Steve |

.....and are easy to pick up. It's an obsolete technology, so few are interested. |

The decoder goes in the tape loop. /t, posted on March 28, 2015 at 05:59:08 | |
