Unless you buy a vinyl record that is SEALED, or in NEAR-MINT condition,there will always be some type of surface sounds,
or background noise, known as pops and crackling.
If the LP has been played a couple of times, it can never be perfect. This is especially noticeable in classical records, which have quiet passages.
I know there is software that you can use to clean up your records to record on CDs, if you so choose.
You are buying vinyl LPs because they sound better than CDs, however the pops and crackling come with an LP.
Ratings and Definitions of LP Conditions in order to avoid confusion: ALL RECORDS ARE GRADED VISUALLY UNLESS SPECIFIED ALL RECORDS ARE HAND CLEANED BY DISC DOCTOR . MACHINE WASHING BY A VPI CLEANER IS RECOMMENDED TO HAVE BEST SOUND QUALITY.
Mint M . Absolutely perfect in every way. Never been played or still sealed. I use this rating very sparingly Cover must be in the shrink wrap for this grade. Some promo copies can get this grade since they originally were never in shrink wrap.
Near Mint NM . LP shows hardly any signs of ware or that it ever has been played. Maybe just a few spins .The record has been treated with great respect, Covers will be Graded on a Individual basis always.
Very Good Plus Plus VG . This LP may show some signs that it was played a few times or many times but the LP was treated with respect. LP surface may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches/hairlines that do not affect the overall listening experience. The cover may have some ring/spine wear and discoloration. Inner sleeves/booklets may have some slight wear. The LP cover may have also a cut-out hole, corner indentation not disturbing the overall condition of the LP itself. Can have a sticker or label attached if it is a promo copy. There will be pops and crackling in the quiet sections.
Very Good Plus VG . Conditions as described in VG may be found in a more pronounced way on LP for this rating. Surface noise may be evident upon playing, especially in soft and other passages, but not overpowering the music. Wear may be noticeable. Scratches may affect the sound in places. The cover and the labels may show some writing, or have stickers or residue attached.
Very Good VG . LP in Very Good condition will have surface noise and scratches and it might have one skip, which will be noted in the description. The cover or sleeve may have seam splits, however archival transparent tape will be used to fix the seam .
Good G . I WILL SELL A RECORD IN THIS CONDITION.USUALLY A 45 RPM OR A VERY RARE LP .THE RECORD WILL PLAY THREW GENERALLY UNLESS SPECIFIED
