FAQs …

WILL THIS PLAY ON MY TURNTABLE? Yes, of course! Lathe cut records tend to

perform better though with extra weight to the stylus. For optimum playback, increase your counterweight setting just a little.

HOW WILL IT SOUND? The fidelity of a lathe cut record is different than a vinyl pressing. There may be pops and cracks, particularly at the start of these lo-fi recordings. As the groove is cut into the vinyl instead of pressed, there can be tiny particles of residue from the lathing process. It's easily remedied though by wiping the record with a damp cloth or brushing with an anti-static record brush. A good wipe and a couple of plays will actually improve the sound quality of the record.

Also, because the groove is slightly wider than on a conventional pressing, it is possible to place the stylus only partly within it, resulting in incorrect playback.

It may take a couple of attempts to properly seat the stylus in the groove.

WHY IS IT IN MONO? Because mono is cool.
