The single most important figure (imo) in the vinyl LP reissue business.

Okay so I just spent a bunch of money on that website because of this freaking post. Who can blame me I just bought a turntable with no albums and I've got like a dozen almost . Now I've got half a dozen more . This is some heroin addiction . Is there a 12-step group for it? 

No known cure aside from ………

Regarding the above link to the YouTube video of Dylan from Noble Records:

Well, although the idea of visiting the owners of large record collections sounded like a great one, in practice it turns out to be a matter of one's musical tastes and interests. All of the guys Dylan visited---as well as Dylan himself---are fans of musical genres very different from mine. I have zero interest in Psych, Hard Rock, and Metal music, the preferred music of them all. Oh well, others here may like that music too, so enjoy!

No disrespect to the OP or Chad,  I saw the CBS piece too, thought it was a great story about him and his building an impressive life and business. But I’ll happily stand aside as the stampede for reissued vinyl continues leading well intentioned audiophile off the cliff, as that will mean more  good vintage vinyl to be had for the taking.

I’ve  learned from people like Tom Post and Robert Brook, that most of us audiophiles have little or no idea how good the sound can be from good used vinyl, until we make the effort to build front end systems that will play the music of actual 40-50 year old vinyl unforgiving, and wondrously neutral. That’s not  what your souped-up reissue does. It makes it more palatable to play on less resolving systems. The other way is hard, and it’s not cheap, it requires far more of what little time we get for this great hobby, but at the risk of there being less vintage vinyl available to snag, I urge everyone who wants the very best sounding records to listen take a few minutes and read Tom Post. I know he isn’t the cuddliest audiophile, and even rubs many the wrong way. But what he’s saying about reissues  vs original records shoild, IMHO, be taken very seriously.

I have begun revamping my system (I recently purchased a set of Legacy Focus speakers, here on Audiogon,  like Tom’s, to replace my modified 1.7i Maggie’s), and started  vetting vintage vinyl and  using Tom’s suggested system to  clean them. The results have been quite literally astounding.  And I’ve only scratched the surface.  I haven’t been at this as long as many of you here, and know some of you are may scoff that I’m just another Tom Post fan-boy, acolyte,  “true believer “.  But let me end by saying, like many of you, I just want the best music I can get.  I’ve been convinced it’s rarely, if ever, in reissues.  Just my two cents.  No harm intended.

@audiodidact do you mean Tom Port?
