IMO, you'll get far better results at signifcantly lower cost by purchasing the CD versions of those bad LPs. Being an anlog aficionado is commendable, but there comes a point of diminishing returns with bad source material.
Equilizer to reduce surface noise on bad records?
I know that high end shuns away from using equilizers, but I was wondering if anyone has used one to reduce surface noise and pops and clicks on records? I have some record albums that I enjoy but are not in the best shape, I thought that maybe an equilizer would help but do not want to buy one if it is not going to do anything. If it does work, which frequency band would I reduce? I would only use the equilizer on the bad records and switch it out on the good ones. I have a Rega Planer 2 turntable with a Benz ace cartridge.
