RE: Classical record collecting on a budget (long)

Thanks, great info.

Someone mentioned the Nickrenz/Aubort team with the Vox Turnabout label. They also produced some amazing records for Nonesuch. The Vanguard "Cardinal" label is another I can recommend.

Deutsche Grammophon (later non-tulips) can also be found cheap. Very hit or miss soundwise depending on who produced them. Big orchestras usually sound a bit off because of all the mikes they used, but there's some quartets, trios and sonatas that sound pretty good. The vinyl is usually very quiet.

I always buy Angel red label mono's made in England that are in nice condition. Sometimes you can find London's Argo label at decent prices. Usually great recordings on high quality vinyl.
