Bin dug noisy records. Does it diminish your enjoyment?


I have some original pressed (or at least very old) LPs bought used at Half price books, and record stores, and not at Collector prices, as such there is on some a bit of popping and noise, and one or two that were just trash.
So I ask, when you pick up a $5 ish record that plays with some well earned noise but is playable, does that take away from your enjoyment knowing it is and old war horse?

Even new records may have some dust and mold release agent depending on the pressing plant.  The static cling of the vinyl begins the moment the record is removed from the stamper.

Generally, I've been first dunking the records in the Spin Clean and using a few drops (I'll leave it to the reader to find just how many drops to use) of Tergikleen in the bath water.  After 10 spins each way in the Spin Clean, the record then gets two trips through the Degritter, first a long clean with X-100 in the water (again, you're on your own to figure how much to add to the distilled water), then a short clean rinse with plain distilled water.

After much fiddling and listening, I've found this long and drawn out method to yield an enjoyable listen from bargain records up to the overpriced 180g records.  Thicker, heavier vinyl records=more static cling.  That was one of the reasons RCA developed the ridiculously thin "Dynaflex" records.  It partially tamed the static cling problem.  But the records warped much easier.  Trade one evil for another.

And as a side benefit, after going through the 3 step vinyl initiation, the "static cling" seems to stay away for nearly a month.  This in a hot, dry climate which wreaks havoc on vinyl records for static buildup.
Plus 1 Russ69.

Switched to CDs from the 90s. LPS are just too high maintenance. I realize that some folks like the routine, but I just want to get straight to the music. Ripped my CD collection to FLAC which I stream via Roon and its audio nirvana! 
Assuming records have been cleaned, the better the system, the greater the separation between the vinyl noise floor and the music. For the most part, any noise on the record disappears once the music starts. 
Search for record cleaning service on eBay.

Not a long term solution,  obviously..but you could send a few and hear how the process improves, or not, the sound of a few of your disks to help you decide what it's worth to you.

Fiesta75, thanks for the link. Amazon used to have that machine at a similar price, but they sold out. Now I only see it for $325 or more, most places.
