Yo!
My mum's taught me a technique her and her hippy friends used to flatten out records if needed, it has worked but I have a few that just don't want to spin right. Weird enough, one of the worst ones is a NEW record (the Mars Volta - Amputecture).
My record collection nearly quadrupled a few weeks ago. As awesome as it is, I felt kind of sad that even some of my newer ones don't spin correctly as I stared at all this wonderful music from the 40's-95'ish.
My table isn't the "best" or even mediocre, originally it was a gift to "just" listen on (and it does that well, when the records aint wobbling around)! It's a Jensen "JTA-980B". Again, does well when playing the easy-spinning records but I have a feeling a better table + some flattening out would do the trick (mostly).
Any thing I should know about how to get this to stop/subside a little? I have a ton of Gospel stuff now, most of it is all unheard to me. I'm excited but I don't want to have my new-music-high wrecked by some shitty spinning!
(sorry to clutter y'alls awesome forums up with scrubby questions, we all have to start somewhere, riiiiiiight?
)
Peace!
