buy some good record sleeves. the record player isn't going to damage your records as much as not buying a decent record rack and re-sleeving the records that come in ultra-cheap paper. outer sleeves are not expensive either, and prevent
records from slipping out of the covers. box sets, like all nine beethoven symphonies, do pose a problem however; dividers would be nice, but then the records aren't going to fit inside the box anymore... you really should transfer the vinyl to single-alblum covers- which for some particularly valuable records is probably a necessity. "bags unlimited" has a free catalog and has alot of useful stuff in it.
