Bin dug noisy records. Does it diminish your enjoyment?

Not anymore!  Been digging my Sweetvinyl Sugarcube SC-2 with surface noise masking upgrade.  I turn my $1 and $2 record show finds into near mint vinyl, then make a hi res digital file of them for my server.  Love it, but, of course, I clean my records first.  Using a cheep and cheerful KAB vacuum cleaner.  Great results, tons of listening pleasure. I probably won't live long enough to spin all the vinyl I have.

I washed about 20 LPs with a Spin Clean, got a lot of dirt etc. in the bottom of the cleaner. The old washed records sound very good now, (Tom Jones looks a little scratched up, have not tried that one yet).
So I will get them all washed, and find a replacement for Tom. Everything has been going into MoFi inner sleeves, and the Vinyl Styl outer sleeves, because sliding an LP out of a paper sleeve is painful. Livin' and Learnin' in my new hobby here.

get an ultrasonic record cleaner.  I could not believe the improvement in the records I purchased used.  Even new records.

Almost like a whole new medium.

Depends... 

If is a quiet solo piano piece of music, then I'll likely pass. There is nowhere for the noise to get buried and it can become too distracting.

This is usually where I get my "guilty pleasure" recordings. Sometimes I get very lucky, other times not so much. It's also where I will try something different.

If it's a record I'm really pining for, I will seek out a "proper" copy.

Learned early on with this latest return to vinyl (six years now) that an RCM is a must have. Started using home brew, a painting pad, microfibre cloth and a dish drying rack. Tried the Spin Clean to no avail and gave up on it. Best accessory I ever got was my Okki Nokki. Three wash cycles followed by three rinse cycles using L'Art du Son. Overkill I suspect, but at least I know they are as clean as I can get them with the tools I have.

If a record looks dirty, doesn't matter. I think of it as a protective coating :)  Light scratches don't really matter pending the profile of the stylus.

Going through the bins is a relaxing and meditative process provided you leave enough time for it :)

certainly more fun than file or cd.
