Lathe Cut Vinyl Records: Audio Comparisons and Reviews

[2024 Update: Little Elephant has updated their lathe and printing equipment.
Audio: Now the cutoff frequency issue is gone and the stereo imaging is still superior to Tangible Formats, though the noise floor is still worse due to the quiet sound level. So I'd say audio-wise this is now tied for first with Tangible Formats, at 4 stars instead of 3.
Artwork: this is improved as well, regarding both the cover and the label. The printer lines are no longer present (though the cover still feels sticky and bows outward like before). So now I'd put this at 4 stars instead of 3.]

[2023 Update: Tangible Formats can make proper 7" sleeves instead of foldovers, adding one more star to their Artwork category]

NOTE: This is my first informational video (and first time using Final Cut Pro). Please give me feedback on how to improve, in case I make more!
