You have gotten some wise advice. Just a few days ago a member was complaining about the poor quality of some expensive records. I have ordered from wdcdradio and soundstagedirect for years. I have gotten very good quality vinyl each time and the surface has always been quiet and refined. I have ordered from every category they
have. The VTA issue should not be a problem if your rig is set up correctly when listening to regular 120 or 180 or 200 gm vinyl. Once I set my rig up and it sounds wonderful I leave it alone. I keep my records clean and as dust free as I can and it keeps me very happy. Worry more about a good record cleaner once your rig is set up properly.
