In Reply to: RE: Sorry, I'm a technical nut.. posted by cheap-Jack on November 05, 2007 at 10:56:09
the white papers, waveforms, graphs and testing procedures that show how playing vinyl through a water scrim is, as you've so vociferously argued on VA, a) musically advantageous, and b) does no harm to record or stylus.
I'll just assume the mess and time involved is worthwhile vis-a-vis the sonic advantages produced, so no need to go into that aspect of the procedure.
Since you're the only person I have heard talk about using this technique (though I have heard of it, many many years ago) and you seem to rely so heavily on the "technical" aspects in building an audio system, I'm eager to see the black-and-white evidence to support your claims.
TIA

Hi.
Before the moderators move it to an more appropriate venue...
But out of courtesy from me the technical nut, produce your technical substantiation to support your challenge that wet playing LP does damage the vinyls.
I've been playing them for many years - wet. So? If there is any technical write-ups on wet vinyl playing, I want to read? Tell me where to find some.

I don't know what it is-it's certainly not mainstream.
But of course, I'm not really referring to your soggy records-the point you've made for me is that there is no scientific or 'technical' reason to be forcing your poor stylus to hydroplane through an H2O bath in order to play some music-however you, as opposed to 99.9google% of other vinyl aficionados, have decided that it's the way to go even without scientific or 'technical' proof.
In other words, get off your 'technical' soapbox concerning the much less far-fetched tweak being discussed. You're just another case of the pot calling the kettle black.
vaya con dios
Hi.
So you make yourself a case of lime calling lemon bitter as you already answer your question for me. Thanks.

PS: why don't you tell us how you 'tweak' or treat the kids last Halloween? Oh, yes, this is tweak/DIY forum.
*Demands evidencial bona fides from cdc to validate his tweak, yet when asked for the same for his own, um,"different" methodologies, wants proof that it's not scientifically plausible. i.e, you can't prove it's not viable, ergo it must be viable.
*Using syntax that grows more tortured the further his arguments deteriorate, he mimics my old maxim with head-shaking results, at least to those of us here on The Planet of Linear Logic.
*Ends his exercise in Master Debate with a nonsensical reference to kids, trick-or-treat, and Halloween that, frankly, gets creepier with each reading.
Nice job so far, Jack! Keep diggin' man-the hole just gets deeper and deeper.
