xfedaykinx Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 black is the absence of color in the visible spectrum of light. thats why when there is no light, you see black. black in pigmentation is essentially all colors combined. as the almighty wiki states: "Black is the lack of all colors of light, or an exhaustive combination of multiple colors of pigment.

dreamover Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 anyone who has a setup good enough to tell the difference between colored and black vinyl probably doesn't own any colored vinyl. also, the difference between colored and black vinyl is insignificant to the difference between any color or black virgin vinyl to any colored or black garbage vinyl.

brammyg Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 If my coloured vinyl has black splatter in it, does that mean it sounds better in the parts it covers? Science tells me so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooclosetosee Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Even though many like to pretend like they do, the majority of this board does not buy vinyl because it "sounds better."Listening to punk records on vinyl does not make you an audiophile no matter what color the vinyl is. So true.... I thought about getting Blink - Dude Ranch on 180 gram "audiophile" and I was like....wait.....that album is not a high quality production album, what the hell is 180 gram going to do for it? So I got it on transparent brown, I guess I am one of the few who thought that. Something like Muse - Absolution on 180 gram on a nice stereo might make a difference though.

lechevre Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 you don't have to make fun of me! It's just science guys. The colored vinyl sounds bad. Hey dudebromanbod, we have science too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numanoid Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I have plenty of colors that sound as good as black. And I have an audiophile set up. Glow and fluorescent sound bad. Transparent colors tend to sound fine. White usually sounds pretty bad. I'm sure its got to do with the size of the pigment in the vinyl. Small enough particles and it doesn't matter.

xfedaykinx Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 i am willing to bet that if you have the same record, from the same pressing, on several different colors, you would not be able to hear a difference in sound. it is all about the mastering before they produce the plates. if the audio isnt mastered properly for vinyl it will sound bad, regardless of whether its on 200g Black or 120g white.

brennan Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 i'm pretty sure in theory black vinyl does "sound better" which is a pretty open to interpretation statement. However in practice probably less than 5% of this boards members have good enough equipment to notice or pick up any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest drawthecurtains Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Oh, you crazy kids with your witty black people = black records racism jokes, ho ho ho! I for one, own several slaves and treat them all as nice as I own my records - I scoff at you small-minded peasants that try to amuse yourselves with over-done jokes. HMPH.
