When 10C puts out an item that is clearly for collectors/fan whether they play it or not, (I mean it's the same music repackaged) and only charge $55 I have a hard time finding anything to complain about. Some of you guys appear to putting your kids through school with PJ releases so don't bite the hand that feeds.
It could be like other bands of the same era who issue a record on RSD, make it limited, charge $40 for it and all it is is two records in two paper sleeves in a piece of cardboard with a picture on it.
I will take the packaging, the colored vinyl etc... of Sevens for $55 any day.
This is honestly the same thickness as most of the 7" in my collection. It doesnt stand out to me as a flaw
If you have time to, and if you want to consider this, take a look at your Xmas from 91 to 2010...you'll see what I mean. Take a look at other 7" from PJ , even the colored ones (ex: red Last Kiss vinyl) and you'll see.

I understand.
But can you remind me the price of every single 7" vinyl on the market at a record store ? Even PJ ones ? 8 dollars perhaps ?? And most of them are "decent" Here we have 7 records for 55 dollars so it's almost the same price.
Just wondering why anyone cares if they are thin. I haven't seen anyone say they sound bad, so who gives a shit?
If you don't play them on a turntable, you don't give a shit, ok... If records are made to be played, well, take a look at them after a few spin...
You think they are so thin that they'll wear out after a few spins?
Well, when I read that, I can't believe you're a vinyl enthousiast... Many poorly pressed records have defaults after a few spin due to the cartridge if they are not enough hard. (i don't know how to explain it properly in english, excuse that...) If records are veru thin, it's worse.

I just haven't ever had any issues or come across any records that have had issues like this, and have never seen anyone talk about it before, as a vinyl enthusiast. This one's new to me!

If there were no issues about that and if no one before me and no audiophile had never talked about that before, I never would have tell you about that.
I don't care about a 180g vinyl or not, if the structure is well made and if the grooves and holes are well made and are very sharp and hard. But if the record is very very thin, well, I'm a bit scared...

Yeah, I gathered.... I was just saying that I hadn't. At any rate, I'm not planning on opening my Sevens yet, but if the result of the records being thin is what you are worried about please give us an update!

You would only notice a difference if you're using awful equipment like a Crosley or if you play this 500 times compared to a thicker version.
Being thin doesnt make this a poor pressing. Soundwise it's a slight improvement over my regular 12"
Are 180g 45's even made? Or ever made. I've got a bunch of 45's and all are thinner than regular vinyl. My dad has hundreds of 45's and all are pretty thin.
Seriously- I have vinyl, some vinyl in the 80's was thinner than normal, but they sound great. I'm not sure the weight takes away from the sound quality at all. I've bought heavy vinyl that has been horrible....
Yeah this thread is ridiculous. My two worst sounding records are both 180g. Some of my best are 120 and 140. And yes im using an audiophile setup on all links of the chain.
again,can someone,of the one who notice the difference,bewteen the onld singles and sevens tell me the weight difference in grams? im on a diet and those details are important,thanks

I dunno....My 200gr 45rpm Counting Crows 2LP sounds pretty good & I have a pretty good setup as
Thats because the CC record was a terrific masterung and pressing job. I was just relaying that just because a record is heavy doesnt make it better than a traditional thin one.

This new forum design rocks! On the old forum you were sure to be attacked, insulted and possibly banned by a select few with a comment like that.
We are all members and have a say as long as it is not personal. The old forum seemed to be very small.
Keep up the good work 10c and mods.

All that I once held as true

The only truth I know is you.
