Two New TMOQ JAPAN Acetates


Recommended Posts

Acetates have a much softer surface compared to vinyl, haven't they? I don't think noted collector Robert Godwin was very enthousiastic of the acetate medium...Too expensive and after a few spins the grooves wore out.

Whoever said this is Wrong. VERY wrong

  I own 2/3 of the full volley of TMOQJapan. And play them. 
expensive a little. But pure quality. Sound

 

Acetates are not intended for repeated use; they are meant to test the sound quality of the master pressing. Are you playing acetate pressings or vinyl pressings? There's a difference. I have an acetate pressing of Jimmy Page's 'Wasting My Time' single from Sterling Sound in New York City, and I've never played it because I don't want to put any wear and tear on it and besides, the song itself is available in digital format.
