The most important aspect of audio is that you have to learn how to do it for yourself.
We can find you the best sounding pressings; that’s the easy part. Figuring out how to play them, and learning how to listen to them, well, that’s a fair bit harder. That part takes a lifetime, at least.
This hobby is supposed to be fun. If you’ve been in it for any length of time you know that sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t. But if you enjoy doing it at least some of the time, and you devote the proper resources to it — time and money — you will no doubt derive much more pleasure from it, especially if you use our approach.
It has worked for us and it can work for you.
This is what the revolutionary changes in audio link explains. If you haven’t taken advantage of all the newest technologies that make LP playback dramatically better than it was ten or twenty years ago, a great many records won’t sound the way you want them to.
Trust me, there’s a world of sound lurking in the grooves of the best “badly recorded” albums that simply cannot be revealed without good cleaning fluids and machines, vibration-reducing platforms, top quality front ends, room treatments, big speakers pulled well out from the back wall, and much, much more.
Our playback system is designed to play records with all the size, weight, energy and power of live music.
We live for this kind of sound here at Better Records. We’re prepared to do whatever it takes to play records with the maximum fidelity we can achieve, secure in the knowledge that a system that can play “badly recorded” albums and have them sound right is one that can play practically any record.
