Warped Vinyl Flattener

[jls001]

Looks interesting and cheap enough:

Vinyl Flat Home

Needs heating at 65 Deg C for about 35 mins.

I just used a huge stack of heavy books and that worked for me...

"Looks weird, fixes warped records."

OK, that's a pretty straight form of marketing: I can live with that!

Quite expensive, especially with the pouch, but if it does work safely and reliably, the results could be priceless.

Mmmm, see what you mean

The ones I've heard of before have been more of the sheets-of-glass or heavy-book DIY sort of thing, sometimes with judicious application of heat.

But I didn't mix with many audiophiles in those days hyeah:

thad... check out the prices of the Furutech vinyl flattner.....


its sophisticated... but (in my book) not euff for a over $3k price tag (used)!

Oh Vinyl, how fragile thou art!

I still have pangs over a triple album that I put down on a television forty years ago. Unfortunately I'f forgotten it when I briefly came across its owner again a while back. If I find him again, an Amazon gift voucher will be on its way --- but I doubt that the vinyl is still available.

If one has made the huge investment in vinyl that some do, even the Furutech might not seem so expensive. If I still had the need, I would be tempted to give the Vinylflat a try.
