Getting back into Vinyl, and I am noticing that there are a lot of Lps out there that are differant colors, pink, blue, white, and more. I was told that sound on colored vinyl can be differant, or not as good as on good old black vinyl. Any thoughts on this?Thx. FR
Picture discs are no good for sound. I have not found any problems with regular colored vinyl, that I can directly associate with the color of the vinyl.
I don't think the color matters although I have never done an a/b.
But you should check out the Classic Records Jimi Hendrix Blues which comes on blue vinyl. It is awesome. Great music, great mastering, great packaging and great sounding vinyl.
Like TWL said, the sound of picture LPs is compromised (some even say so on the labels). I have been told that clear or transparent colored vinyl is always virgin vinyl. That would be a good thing, but I don't know if it's actually true or not.
