As with all my records, these were machine washed when first purchased (used).
Because of marks, these LP's went through my multi-step cleaning regimen :
Multiple fluids and disposable cleaning materials, followed by a wash with machine-vacuuming.
In sum, the sound is spectacular, but there are still marks which cause tics.
As always, your satisfaction is guaranteed. Returns are for full refund, less return shipping.
I am retired, with an extensive (over 10,000) collection of classical LP's, and want to pass them along to other (younger) lovers of classical music .Thus, I am open to offers on ALL of my listings. However, since my financial situation requires that I help support myself, I must ask for realistic offers only.
