    We had to wait for Doc Hardy to Hardy up the thread first. A show of respect of course.

    Alright, I chose Phil Collins "Face Value" because there's not a shortage and it's a cheap record. I'm about to listen to enough Phil Collins tonight to last me a month, the same side over and over.

    The LP I was using was the new/remastered copy of division bell. It sounds really good.

    I never noticed this but there's a repeat button on my TT. Why would Yamaha put a repeat button on one of their best TT's ever if repeat plays would destroy records? I don't think they would.

    I'm on the third play through of "Face Value" side A. Still sounds fine so far.

    I can't take it anymore. I'm going to let the record keep playing on repeat and I'm going to watch (and listen!) to something else while it does its thing.

    I forgot I had this thing... Soundcraftsmen Instructional Test Record. I bought it a while ago and never played it. It looks like it's just a bunch of test tones, probably nothing like the test records we were talking about earlier.

    Alright, this is been on repeat for near 3 hours and it still sounds fine. When I pulled the record off it did not feel significantly warm either like the record in the OP, only very very slightly warm.

    I checked out the Soundcraftsmen record and it's for setting up an equalizer.

    This looks like what I want https://www.amazon.com/HiFi-News-Test-Producers-Cut/dp/B00KMCL1PE

    Sounds to me like it's yet one more reason to leave vinyl behind and switch to another format.

    Oh my god are you harboring a few people to torture? I mean I can't get through one song of Phil Collins let alone an album side, then on repeat oh my God the Horror. :o

    All jokes aside perhaps you got a bad pressing, it happens more often on newer pressings, I have clear, red, blue, white, yellow, no problems, but some problems such as warpage, and extreme surface noise on what appears to be a mint clean copy have only been expierenced by me with some of the newer 180 gram pressings.

    I have read a lot of complaints on the quality control of some of the newer vinyl pressings. Solution buy another copy of the same LP and see if you experience it again if so return them both.

    i do believe damage can be done playing the same track over and over.

    Heretic! That's literally impossible, all vinyl records are invulnerable. ;)
