Ok what is the deal with the new vinyl? I am seeing a lot of "New" old albums. I recently read that some of these companies are remixing when they reissue. I'm not so sure I like that. The article I read was very disturbing. Thoughts?

anything to make a buck. Vinyl is making a comeback of sorts and the record companies are trying to get in on it. The remix are in hopes of getting those who have it already to buy another. IMO

Ok I'll try and find that article. A friend posted it on my FB and IDK how to search for it. Not very good with that kind of stuff. What is 180 gram? I assume the weight of the record. I guess it is heavier? I suspect the same pitdogg2.HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

Hmm I guess I remember this differently. He is referencing CD's.
