@pryso , very true about warps and dishing. I send the dished records back. It is almost impossible to seal the convex side.
In order to hear the warp easily you have to have some steady tones like a cord held on a piano. Sine wave test records really demonstrate the effect of warps and off center spindle holes. When a turntable compensates for everything except the offset spindle hole which there is no compensating for, with vacuum clamping and rock solid speed control there is a sensation of solidity which greatly adds to the illusion. I can not tell you if this is psychological or not as I have not performed that experiment. It seems to me to be quite obvious but, out brains are powerful items and you should never write them off.
