Hi!
Hoping for some advice/knowledge from the hive mind.....
I'm new to vinyl, got setup over Christmas and have started listening.
I'm not "audiophile", just starting out.
Most of the time we love the sound, but have noticed some aspect of recording at the top end are more "present" than their digital counterparts. Occasionally on busy/loud bits of tracks, the top end can get quite distorted (e.g. snares, kazoo, choral cresendos etc).
Any ideas if this is normal/expected when starting out, and any suggestions on how I might dial it in?
Anything I might be missing in terms of basics for setup and maintainance?
Technics SL-7 > Spartan 5 > Audio Pro A10 (pair)
Go easy on me as I'm new at this!
