In Reply to: Should I give up on Classic Records? posted by Skeptic on May 16, 2007 at 17:52:40:
I bought their 180 gram since they first started with the RCA "golden age" reissues and a few other jazz titles, plus a few led zeps and a david crosby....maybe 15 records total. Although I sometimes had warp problems, the records usually looked and played ok. I did'nt buy records for awhile (to be honest I ran up a bit of debt going a little overboard on the vinyl "renisance" of the early 90's) and recently I bought some classic records blue note reissues thinking where are you going to get blue notes at a lower price (compared to originals). Most of them were ok, some surface noise, and visible scuffs, none severely warped. They did have very good sound and so I live with the quality flaws. Then I got the who 150 gram who's next, this record sounds amazing, but again after 3 tries I live with its defects (every copy had crackles on "getting in tune")Lately they are poor quality pressing wise in my experience, lots of noise and lots of warps. The 180 grams of the 90's were alot better. lately After 3 tries of the who's next 150g, I gave up on getting a good one, all 3 had crackles all the way through getting in tune. But Since the record sounds amazing, I live with its flaws. I then tries an everest pictures at an exhibition which crackles all the way on both sides and gave up on classic records forever, I dont care what they put out.
