Thank you for this interesting thread.

BTW, as I wrote here, I have almost no further intention of washing/cleaning any other my old LPs bringing them to my on-the-fly LP listening by the revived DP-57L + DL-301II in the DSP multichannel multi-amplifier setup since I have almost all the CD re-releases.

I would like to purchase, on the other hand, just a few of recently released HiFi 45 rpm 30 cm LPs in jazz and classical genre, if available. I would highly appreciate your possible recommendation and/or suggestion on such HiFi excellent recording quality 45 rpm 30 cm LPs which would well fit as my standard real-time-listening reference LPs in my DSP multichannel active audio setup.

Even though not 45 rpm, I believe the "Bach Organ Trio sonatas" by Ton Koopman, LP 52MA 0091-0092 ARCHIV (digital recording but originally released in LP) is one of such reference LPs, as I shared here and here.

I don’t play most of my records these days but I like this collection even though most of it is on streaming.

Grabbed this nice used vinyl album package, the 'Thorens 125th Anniversary', at the local thrift shop in MadCity .....

.

Appears to come from the Acoustic Sounds folks, pressed on 180 gram vinyl.

Eclectic assortment of tunes, sounds great .....

Cheers & Peace !!!

Couldn't find this on a streaming service - 140g I think; £10 GBP, near mint, plays perfectly - Captain Beefheart's Hard Working Man - absolutely awesome

Love the bass on this album, Vinyl seemed the way to go in terms of dynamic range

You don't need to hear pops & clicks.
What you need to do on every record? (Yes, brand new ones included)

Do the following only once:
- clean the record with a RCM (aspiration or cavitation)
- use a new inner sleeve (mofi style, the prices now are very low, Hudson HiFi are the cheaper ones)

Do the following before every play:
- carbon fiber brush


And ... from time to time, clean the stylus.

That recipe worked for me decades, and I cleaned the records only the first time.
Forget about clicks & pops.

... and use a pickup with a line contact stylus.

To have the best sound experience ... yes, totally. Many people only used cheap bounded conical / elliptical styluses and they think that audible distortion, sibilances or IGD are normal.

With a properly configured line contact stylus, clean records and a decent turntable (not talking about expensive ones) ... I normally forget that I'm listening to vinyl... and I don't hear any embarrassing difference with digital. At all.
