    Both mono and stereo boxes are only suitable for listening and replacing with new ones. They have no real collectible value and are not at all similar to the first presses. I don't understand who is raising the prices on them. Ordinary consumer goods, not the Grail. The images are blurry, the cardboard is slightly glossy and bears little resemblance to the chic laminate of the old days. At the same time, it also seems to be a little sticky. Only books are good. I have this shit, but at starting prices. I would never forgive myself for buying this garbage at the current fantastic prices. Yes, it's new, strong, acceptable, sealed... junk - in an oversized box. This is why I don't recommend buying vinyl boxes. It's better to spend money on the individual albums you need. But it's even better to find old records in good condition.

    I have ran this machine for two years now. It is unparalleled. People who are saying $4,000 are psycho. I just bought my second set up. I have one at home and now I just bought one for my music store. I paid for the kit which is $1100. The 1L vat is in extra $100. If you have a spin clean it is useless to this machine. It would be like playing in little league compared to playing in the Major Leagues. I have now cleaned over 5,000 records with my first machine and i use distilled water, few drops of iliford, 4 ozs alcohol. Each record is at least 1/2 grade better. How do I know this I play graded 1,000 records and then when my machine came in I re graded them. Most of these records were at least 1/2 grade better. ONE must have been really dirty because it went from VG to Excellent- a full grade.
