To me it sounds fine, but I never listen to any of my records with headphones and there are usually kids running wild around the house when the music is on. So, I'm not the best judge of sound quality unless something sounds like absolute shit. This one doesn't (to me).

What does everyone use to clean their albums?

The past couple of new albums that have come from Amazon have some kind of film (dirt?) on them.

Some awesome answers.
I find that the albums that come from Amazon all need to be cleaned well.
Just ordered a Thunderon Brush after reading some of the answers.

Otherwise I use the standard brush but rather than go the Okki Nokki route (which looks badass) I have a cheaper version that I love, the Record Doctor V. About $200 vs $500.

Phoenix - Ti Amo

Beach Boys, "Surf's Up", Analogue Productions, 200 gram vinyl. A mixed bag and one of the last Beach Boys records that Brian Wilson contributed significantly too. But just for the songs "Til I Die" and "Surf's Up", reproduced impeccably by Analogue Production, this is what, if there is one, music in heaven must sound like. Simply stunning.

I went to a new record store down in Ft Lauderdale (We Got the Beats) while on vacation and picked up:

Soundgarden - Superunknown
Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever
Beastie Boys - Ill Communication

Really cool store!

Picked up these new albums:

Dan Auerbach (love it)
Royal Blood (like it, but not as much as their 1st album....more of a grower for me)
Fleet Foxes (awesome album)

On vacation in Florida and stopped by a couple record stores and found this beauty. Have been looking for this version FOREVER.
Masterdisk RL on BOTH sides a -1A / -1A pressing.
Couple clicks on Long Distance Winner, but talk about a GREAT sounding record.

Yes, it's great!

In keeping with my latest Beach Boys obsession (fueled by Peter Ames Carlin's marvelous book, Catch a Wave; the Rise, Fall and Redemption of Beach Boys' Brian Wilson) I recently picked up "Beach Boys in Concert". Surprisingly good live double LP!
