What do you think causes the crackle and clicks we hear?

MC you really need to go digital. This stuff is getting to your head or whatever you call it:)

Good one. Its just hard sometimes to take this stuff seriously. I mean it is after all records we’re talking about.

Its like the guys on Rennlist asking why do my brakes squeal? Why can’t Porsche make a car the brakes don’t squeal? VW can. Mercedes can. Why not Porsche? What is so hard?

And there’s really only two ways to go. One is a deep dive into brake compounds, calipers, temperature ranges, kinetic energy, on and on. The other is dude, its a Porsche. If you absolutely can’t deal with it go ahead, drive the Beetle.

Its static electricity, dirt, dust, wear- all those and more. If you absolutely can’t deal with it, there’s always the Beetle.

I believe Atmasphere draws a link between how audible and annoying they are with phono stage overload characteristics.

Atmasphere overload. Good one. A bit pre-emptive, but still.

Rice krispies. Well technically its holons in the morphic fields emanating from the writing on the box of rice krispies. http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina43.htm

Either that or static electricity. However you must admit static electricity is nowhere near as word-salady as holons and morphic fields.
