Did you just get it?

I've noticed something slightly wrong with my vinyl. Side B sounds somewhat off. I think this is due to the album being printed on thin slightly inferior quality vinyl. One of my other OPM vinyls is a bit wobbly of shape too.


WOW I never heard that before. To bad I wasn't told when I was still putting out vinyl I would have looked into it. Sorry

Yes Mr Preston Just received his FREE record. It's not too easy finding him something he doesn't already have and might enjoy.

Please- what other vinyl have you had a problem with? And what do you mean by Inferior?
I have had a hand in releasing close to 100 releases all pressed at the same place and I have never heard this before. You really have me thinking...

On the surface the vinyl looks great. But if you look at it from the side it's quite wavey/wobbly shaped(compared to other vinyls) and on side B of the vinyl you can hear the that 'waving' shape repeating in the music(sounds out of tune and like it's just below the normal playing speed at times). It's not just over the music, but 'in' the music, I think this is due to the vinyl being wobbly during the pressing.

The OPM vinyls really feel weaker(easier to bend) and are thinner than most other new vinyls I have(some of those are extra thick, I believe to prevent such problems).
