The day when vinyl collectors and music fans queue outside of record stores for limited new outings are close, and I am one of the courageous warriors who are preparing for the battle. It is true, it is almost time for the record store day 2025, which lands on April 12, and although the thrill to add new additions to your vinyl collection is a feeling of a high level, some lugs in the pleasure of the body for rare pre-like presses.
Putting your hands on this large LP that you looked for may have the impression of having hit the jackpot, but the distorted vinyl is almost inevitable at some point in your collection career.

Even if it looks like a massive compact CD player.
