This annoying vinyl record defect has to stop! (Dimples on the playing surface).
Those little tiny bubbles or dimples on the record surface that are audible as pops and ticks are an infuriating issue!
It's obviously a pressing plant issue It's a pressing issue overall either the stamper not pressing down properly or releasing properly not forming that groove as it should be.
It's an issue that really you can't do anything about. You can try and return the record and get another copy.... Sometimes it may affect the entire batch.
On this occasion, I got luck and was able to locate another copy without the flaw!
