All? This Christmas? A surprise?
The surprise is how long it takes.

It might be better to buy the CDs and spend the same amount of time
working overtime. Where women are concerned it's not the thought but
the price that counts.

Goldwave does a good job of declicking, fading in and out,
rumble filtering.

I did this last year. Dad got a new hifi with no turntable so I said,
"don't worry, I'll copy all your old records onto CD for you!". Big
mistake! Took me a few weeks doing a few albums each evening to
transfer about 40 albums or so. The end result was ok - dad was happy
but I'd not recommend it.

Have you considered sending them off to one of these online LP to CD
sites. I've used "Your Music On CD"
(www.indicativeit.co.uk/yourmusiconcd) a few times and found them to
be very good. Each album comes on it's own CD with seperate tracks,
clicks and jumps removed, CD cases and all the labels. Might be a bit
expensive to send them all your wive's records but you could just send
off her favourite ones. Looks like they are running a christmas
promotion at the moment as well so even better!

Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are tasty and good with ketchup.
