Stereo Needle Low quality sound with new record player?
I recently got a record player that transfers music to my computer via USB cable. The first few days I had it, it sounded great and I picked up great recordings on my computer. But shortly thereafter, the sound quality became very poor. I normally leave it plugged into my stereo (It had great sound there too at first) and through both the stereo and computer the sound is bright, it echoes a little and the balance between different vocal lines and instrumental lines is terrible!
Could this be a problem with the needle? (Like I say, it's very new and doesn't get played A LOT.)
Are my records in bad shape?
Check that the needle hasn't got a build up of dust or fluff on it. If your records are in bad shape then dirt will accumulate in the grooves and the needle will get bunged up which affects your sound quality.
Use a small soft brush to clean your needle and try again.
