I agree with lewm. I have some from the late 50's and early 60's that sound incredible. Nearly half of my LP collection was bought used and they sound wonderful.
Find a friend with a good system. Bring your favorite CD and it's LP counterpart. That should be all it takes to convince you. I usually prefer older pressings to newer ones, but I must say today's pressings are really getting good.
Playing a clean LP (I wet clean using the formula from the December 1996 Stereophile at every play) and my Records are clean, quite and dynamic. Using a quality record cleaning machine is a wonderful idea if you find cleaning your records a bother.
If anyone wants a PDF of the record formula email and I will send it to you. [email protected]
