QUOTE (botface @ Dec 3 2012, 13:49)  I guess you can expect a factory installed arm/cartridge to be set up properly. I'd still want to check though even if only for reassurance that things haven't gone "off" in transit. This was something I considered. I will most likely double check things, because as you implied, you never know what kind of beating the box took in transit. |

This whole conversation has me intrigued about the technical limitations of vinyl. For example, is there a minimum or maximum frequency that can be "encoded" in vinyl (akin to the ~20Hz and 44.1kHz cutoffs on digital CDs)? Does this differ for 33s, 45s, 78s? Is there a way (based on the needle tip and equipment setup) for a knowledgeable person to precalculate the bands that the most noise interference will likely be in, and thus minimize or remove it? Etc.
It's particularly pertinent as I'm planning to attempt a vinyl-to-FLAC encoding soon. This post has been edited by BFG: Dec 4 2012, 00:17 |

I was close. Geourge Martin says it was 18 kHz.
