Playing Vinyl On A Not Level Surface

Our contractor originally installed the siding to follow our roof line but it looked unlevel.

Playing vinyl on a not level surface.

Our roof line in not level. Hi i was wondering if someone could define an acceptable level of surface noise when listening to a vinyl recording loud. The plywood subfloor is in good condition. Leveling a floor can be either a do it yourself project or a job for the pros depending on what s causing the problem.

In this video i show you how to apply a vinyl decal on to a flat surface. Regarding surface noise not clicks pops you could hook it up to a good soundcard and measure it. In a 25 span it is off 2 inches. Colored vinyl seems to have a noisier floor than black vinyl i always wondered why this is.

The floor is not level or square built in the 70 s. Is it possible to get our floor level enough with compound to make it acceptable for vinyl plank flooring installation. The vinyl boom shows no signs of slowing down and judging the by the ever increasing selection of lps on the market this is a great time to make the plunge and buy a turntable. Having got your turntable connected up and on a firm level surface it s time to play your records.

Sound of the stylus engaging the groove as your zero db reference then look at how low the meters go in silent parts. The best vinyl playback systems will have noise around 70db on good records. In one spot down a connecting hallway can we run vinyl plank perpendicular to the main room if so how do you secure on section to the other without an ugly transition. Whether you re playing tape or spinning vinyl moving parts are involved in getting sound to reach your ears.

We recently had vinyl siding installed. Its very audible on my system and i was wondering if there was something in the setup type of cartridge that may be contributing i ve already cleaned my records. But make sure they re as clean as possible and that the stylus is kept clean. Dirt and dust are the enemy of vinyl playback but all vinyl enthusiasts have a little cleaning ritual for this after a while it becomes second nature.

A turntable s basic function is to pick up the vibrations emitted by the grooves of your records via the tonearm and cartridge the stylus then measures and converts these vibrations into an electrical signal that is amplified into sweet sweet music via. How forgiving is vinyl in regard to an unlevel subfloor. The floor may roll a marble and looks to slope now that the carpet has been removed.
