Frequently Asked Questions
What's a 45 adapter and do I need one?
It's a small insert that fits the large center hole on many 7-inch singles so they'll play on a standard spindle. If you collect 45s, yes — you'll want a couple on hand.
Should I sleeve my records?
Worth it — anti-static inner sleeves protect against scratches and static, and outer sleeves protect the jackets. Cheap protection for records you care about.
How does this differ from Record Care & Cleaning?
Overlapping cousins — this covers the everyday small gear (sleeves, adapters, slipmats), while Record Care & Cleaning focuses on the cleaning kits and fluids. Worth a look at both.
