melvinscam Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 do they skip just like the original copys? put on slatfats and wtthab today, on my new player, and they skip just as bad as they did on my old one. i've heard a bunch of people say the same thing, but i'v also heard people say they have no issues. wtf.

But thanks for the advice! : They're Pretty much the only records I own that have skipped right out of the shrink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabpower Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Mine skipped too. I have almost every represses and they're all pretty much shit. I actually reduced a good amount of skips by cleaning the record very hard with a record brush. It must be because there still is vinyl residue in some grooves. I must admit that some skips still occur at the same places on different represses. For new records, this is intolerable. Overall, Epitaph should be more carefull about those things but they did replace one of those records for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyacrash Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I can argue both sides here. My represses skipped on my ~$90 record player. Only records I owned that skipped. They don't skip on my $300+ player. So yea, if the $90 player can play every other record fine, then the represses probably are fucked up. However, the expensive player plays them perfectly. Still not an excuse for Epitaph, but they do/can work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not an excuse for Epitaph, but they do/can work. Same here. I used to use an AT PL-300 and I had many records that skipped. The White Trash was by far the worse. Skipped every few seconds. On a Project Debut, no skips period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
