Look After Your Vinyl Records - Sound Matters How to Look After Your Vinyl Records - Sound Matters

Digital audio is brilliant, but it needs to be analogue audio before you can hear it. A Digital to Analogue Converter (DAC) lets all kind of systems sound better than before. If you own a CD collection you’re going to need something to play it on. Our range of CD players are designed to extract every last detail from your discs. Better still, if your turntable manufacturer provides the option to upgrade your platter for an acrylic model, this will allow you to place the record directly onto the platter, thus eliminating the need for a mat altogether. Whichever surface you choose for your platter or mat, they all have pros and cons – you can read more about this topic, here. Turntable Setup & Maintenance This is a term that will come up when shopping for vinyl flooring and can be quite confusing at first. To put it simply, the wear layer is a clear top surface that provides durability, stain and scratch resistance for vinyl flooring.

A worn stylus can permanently damage your records. If you’re unsure about the condition, play on the safe side and replace it. As a matter of practice, I replace my stylus at least once every year. How long a stylus will last depends on how many records you play, the condition of your records, and how well you maintain the stylus with regular cleaning. On average, a diamond stylus tip will typically last between 800 and 1000 playing hours. (That’s a best-case scenario of about four records per day).

Never push, pull or drag heavy furniture across your vinyl flooring as this can mark, scratch and damage the surface. Instead, always lift or wheel in any sofas, tables or chairs, as this will prevent scuffing and other marks from occurring. Rearranging the living room, or just bought a new bit of kit? Here’s how to get your speakers into the best position for your space. Step one is the proper storage of your precious records when they’re not in use. Firstly, always store your records vertically and away from extreme temperature or humidity changes to prevent warping. Never lay your records flat as this is a sure way to warp them over time. Secondly, dust and dirt are the audiophiles’ worst enemy, and the best weapon here is prevention. Always store your records in their sleeve and place them inside the cover. The aim of the game is to keep the amount of time that a record is exposed to airborne dust and dirt particles to an absolute minimum. Outer and Inner Sleeves Recorded September 2010 on a pecan ranch in Tornillo, Texas. Mixed October 2010 at Jim's house in Austin, Texas. Mastered November 2010 in New York City. Vinyl flooring is non-absorbent which means any liquids will sit on the surface in puddles. This can damage the floor if left for long periods of time and also presents potential slip hazards to you and your family. Wipe spillages immediately and use a well wrung out mop or damp cloth to wash the surface; ensuring it dries out completely before walking on it again.Dry Cleaning – Use a carbonfibrebrush to clean your vinyl before and after every play. Brush lightly along the grooves and this will help prevent the build up of dust and other dirt. The carbon strands (on the outer surface of the cleaner) reduce the static charge on the vinyl (which attracts dust) and the inner part (usually a cloth material) then collects the dust on the second wipe after the static is reduced.Remember to regularly clean the brush too. This should be a regular practice in your listening sessions.
