Ownership History: I am the original purchaser. As an audiophile since teenage years, I amassed a varied collection of very carefully played and cared for LP's. Played only on some of the finest equipment available.
ADVANTAGE: consider buying a one owner vehicle from a car enthusiast/collector versus a Used Rental Agency car from a Used Car Dealer.
Played on audio equipment from 1963 thru 1972: AR turntable with Stanton 500E cartridge Dynaco Pas3x Preamp, Dynaco Stereo 70 power amp, Dynaco FM3 tuner AR 2ax speakers Played on audio equipment from 1973 thru 1975: Thorens TD125ABmk2 turntable with Micro/Acoustic MA 2002e cartridge Marantz 7c tube preamp, Bose 1801 power amp, Marantz 10B tube tuner OHM F Walsh speakers Played on audio equipment from 1976 thru 2005: Thorens TD125Bmk2 (removed Thorens tone arm) Infinity Black Widow Tone Arm Ortofon MC20 moving coil cartridge with Ortofon MCA76 pre-preamp Apt Holman Preamp, Apt Power Amp, Nikko Gamma 30 Tuner, Kenwood LO7M mono power amp for sub KEF 101 speakers RH Labs RH1 sub woofer
I have carefully CLEANED each LP with professional alcohol free "Boundless Audio" record cleaning fluid.
PLAY TESTED AND GRADED each LP and outer sleeve using "The Goldmine Standard". " VIST our eBay STORE "ShopandSaveDiscounts" for more high audio quality "CERTIFIED ONE OWNER" LP's.
"CERTIFIED ONE OWNER" means: only from my personal record collection with a 30 return Policy, you pay the return shipping.
NOT some Flea Market purchase played on a low quality record player, they may be clean but may have the music quality grinded away. Also. how can someone "visually" inspect a record for audio playback quality?
NOT all sellers or LP's are the same!
The GOLDMINE Standard of LP Record Grading NM (Near Mint): The vinyl will play with no imperfections during playback. No obvious signs of wear.
VG+ (Very Good Plus): Will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Any defects should be of a cosmetic nature, not affecting actual playback.
VG (Very Good): Surface noise will evident upon playing, especially in soft passages, but will not overpower music.
G+ (Good Plus): Can be played without skipping, but with significant surface noise, scratches and visible groove wear.
