Vinyl Collectors Unite!

Question about vinyl care:

Do you know why i'm not supposed to store my vinyls horizontally? i heard a couple of answers but no one has been able to explain this in a convincing manner...

I know it helps to cause ring wear on the outer sleeves. Not sure of other reasons but would imagine it could contribute to warping as well

Cheers! i been storing my vinyls horizontally ever since i heard this but the newest ones are always in a "waiting stack" that is always vertical, i had to stop doing this when a fellow collector told me not to...

also, if there is any dust/hair/debris, it can get pressed into and fuck up the grooves. when it comes to vinyl, gravity is NOT your friend. the less weight/physical stress you can put on your records, the better.

Interstellar ost

Where did you find this???!! I NEED DIS!!!!!



PS- The remastered pressings of any of the DM albums are quite good. Some Great Reward is my favorite out of the lot.

It's a Music on Vinyl import release. And therefore very expensive.

I ordered mine from Norman Records in the UK. Not sure what their overseas shipping is like but could be worth checking out?

It already costs about the same as on Amazon there. Overseas shipping puts it over.

Fair enough, I wouldn't know with living in the UK. Sorry I couldn't help.

MOV releases are just always expensive.

Got a new arrival, just not the usual kind on this thread. Got a Marantz PM6005 and a pair or Dali Zensor 3's waiting for me at home. I've been away with work the last couple days, so can't wait to get home. Also got plans to reconfigure my shelving and stereo setup this weekend, so will post photos, along with new record arrivals once it's all done 😊

I'd not purchase the MOV version if I were you. Watertower Music already announced the American release of Interstellar that has the exact same packaging and track listing and is $20 cheaper.

Awaiting the arrival of my special triple edition 180 gram vinyl of The Prodigy's The Day Is My Enemy to arrive in the mail.
They released a double 180 gram version of the vinyl as well, but the track order is completely different from the CD and digital release.
I'm curious with the extra space of a third vinyl in the triple edition if the track order will be the same as the CD/digital version.
Recently bought all of their albums on vinyl, including the original triple vinyl edition of Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned that is out of print in pristine condition of Discogs.
The artwork is beautiful on the triple vinyl edition.

I'd probably end up buying both of them anyways because this score changed my life. Ha!

[Reznor2112]

How much did that one set you back?

$28.00

There is a second one up for sale.... PM sent

Also got this baby second hand off Discogs, looks pristine...

Out of print triple vinyl edition of The Prodigy's "Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned"
One of my favorite designed vinyls, this thing is really heavy and thick.

How much was the bootleg copy of Lost Highway and where can I snag a copy?

I bought my copy from this guy on ebay for $29.99. He's now selling a different Gold/Clear version. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lost-Highway...item4ae78449a3

^^^^
Thanks!!! I just picked one up. What color did you get and how is the sound quality?

You're welcome. Glad to hear you got a copy. I picked up the translucent gold version, and the vinyl looks and sounds great. Very happy with my purchase.

Let me know how that sounds; I've heard mixed things about the repressings but picked up Violator's and love it. BC is in my top 3 others I'd want to pick up, but have been hesitant to grab the repress, so I'd love to hear more input on it.

Okay, finally had a chance to listen to the recent repress of Black Celebration.

It has a fantastic sound stage. Excellent bass response. Surface noise is minimal. There's a little bit of sibilance, but not to frustrating levels.

Overall, minor quibbles in an otherwise great release. Happy to finally own this gem of an album.

Added another gold promo 12" from U2 to the collection

I need help figuring out why the Deftones Vinyl Collection that I purchased through Pop Market's 2013 Black Friday sale is not numbered? I thought they were all numbered and it was limited to 1000. It came sealed with the lithograph, in the shrinkwrap and is still unplayed. Was there an unnumbered version too? Any help would be appreciated.

[Al_Hunter]

Picked it up this morning.

Italians Do It Better (a pretty sweet label if you didn't know) is having one of their famous "vault" sales today. Its supposed to go live pretty soon (an hour or so). Amazing deals of very rare records. Just a heads up. Go buy something.

One of the few labels where I actually will pay attention to a band if they're on it. Thanks for the heads up!
