Maybe my system is more sensitive than others (although I doubt it), but, unless I have had the record from new, and been extremely careful with it, then you can always here SOMETHING, especially between tracks, and also in quiet passages.I think some people may be in denial, because records DO have surface noise. Some have noise from new, but most acquire noises as the are enjoyed. Good records may have no LOUD pops and clicks, but are seldom noise free for their lifetime. If you play them, you must take them out of their covers and expose them to the environment and accidental damage. There's no point in having records, and not playing them, IMO, so no record can remain perfectly silent. I admit I don't use gloves, nor do I keep them and my equipment in dust free airconditioned rooms, so maybe mine fare worse than some despite my care.
