Question: can you exclude that there are spindle marks on the labels, I mean also faint spindle trails, also when checked against bright light at the relevant angles? also, can you exclude crackling from groove wear, in particular at Gazzelloni and Straight Up And Down, also when listened to with a proper headphone? thanks
Answer: Hi Thanks for your interest. No spindle marks on the labels. Minimal crackling noise in quiet passages. Cleaned with Audiotop cleaning liquid -> best results. We don't use headphones. We use stereo equipment at a very high level: 2 Thorens 124 mono and stereo Swisssonor and SME tonearms, Ortofon cartridges. This record is a true collectors item. The record is about 50 years old. Kind regards, U.
