Get the CD .. Smile

Or get the record cleaned - I have a very noisy Moth to do it, but I don't use it often.

The very best way I know of is to get a dealer with a Keith Monks or Loricraft record cleaner to give it clean for you.

i have been listening to CDs for more than 10 years, but don't have experience on LPs; I had found the used LPs are very cheep so i bought a turntable.
probably it's good ideal just stick to the CDs?

BTY, by what reason you guys still using LPs and turntable? just because you had it before CD was introduced?

There's your answer!

Make sure you set the Rega up properly, it's not quite as 'fit and forget' as R Gandy would have you believe.
