mncjr94 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Is anyone else having these problems? I got my signed copy of Acoustics II from pledge music. Side A was perfect. Side B was riddled with skips. Almost unplayable. I asked for a replacement from the record company and got one. Same exact problems as the first.

rbaldwin531 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I'm having the same issues, every song on my b-side has one or two skips until Dayglow Vista Road, which is just all skipping. Splatter too. mncjr94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 My black sounds great. I was actually thinking how good it sounds the other day. I thought splatter vinyl wasn't actually meant to be played, like just a collector thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having the same issues, every song on my b-side has one or two skips until Dayglow Vista Road, which is just all skipping. Splatter too. I'm happy to know I'm not the only one. My two copies both are terrible on side B. Dayglow is absolutely unplayable. codeine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Try adjusting your weight/anti-skate My copy has a couple skips on the A-Side (tour variant), but it's hardly an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradedOnACurve Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 it's probably your crosley. Nope, I have an Audio-Technica that plays all of my other vinyl flawlessly Maybe its your Audio-Technica. Bought this yesterday at the show. Playing it now. No skips at all and sounds great for the most part, except around Empty Party Rooms where there is some weird smudge on the splatter that creates some fuzz when it hits that point. Happens on and off for a minute and doesn't really bother me. Yeah I'd double check the setup otherwise. I have a Technics SL-1200 btw.

I'm seeing them in Seattle in a few weeks, did they sell the splatter there or the 3 color? Really looking to pick one up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gippej Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Well I bought this on tour, expecting a splatter, turned out to be the tri-color But on the bright side it is still a great looking record. And for what its worth, my copy has some pretty loud pops in quite a few places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
