How do you store and catalog your vinyl?
Hi uberwaltz, I have a VERY simple Excel spreadsheet with album name, artist, year it came out, Genre and a box for notes.  I also have a Dropbox account that I place the list. I can open it anywhere on my phone or pad so I stop buying dupes. As f... 
So I just inherited a bunch of CD's and some are made overseas...
So yes I did listen to them, and I heard no difference on my equipment.  And yes some have liner notes printed in other countries.  I even have one that's made in the USA, but the liner notes were printed in Canada. The King Crimson disk I mention... 
Has anyone tried the Audience Forte F3 power cord?

Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
I am so glad I didn’t get caught up in this mess.  If my amps hadn’t taken longer getting serviced I might have!  I ended up buying some Audience PC’s that I’m very happy with.JD 
I just inherited 800-1000 CD's and a lot of them are filthy
I used eyeglass cleaner and it removed most everything. I think what's left might be fingerprints that after 20-30 years are permanent. I've played a few and I can't hear anything out of the norm. Maybe I'll try the Novus and see if it removes the...
