Question 6

What's in the (SOUND)BOX?!

Accepted Answer

Every SOUNDBOX comes with a curated collection of 8 pre-owned vinyl records in a sturdy, display-worthy slipcase. All SOUNDBOX vinyl is rated Very Good or higher in quality,(https://blog.electrohome.com/vinyl-grading-system-shop-used-records/#The_Vinyl_Grading_System) unless otherwise indicated in the product description.

With the exception of Special Edition Packages, each SOUNDBOX also comes with a limited edition art print, signed and numbered by the artist, as well as a modernist birch frame. Our current featured artist is Alexander Hanke from Berlin (https://www.zumheimathafen.com/)- check out his work!

Special Edition SOUNDBOX Packages are one-of-a-kind, experiential collections that tell an imagined story about who originally bought the albums and how they might have lost them - only to be unearthed decades later. Each Special Edition SOUNDBOX package comes with a curated collection of 8 pre-owned vinyl records in a sturdy, display-worthy slipcase, alongside a mix of vintage clothing, luggage and other collectible treasures. All SOUNDBOX vinyl is rated Very Good or higher in quality,(https://www.zumheimathafen.com/) unless otherwise indicated in the product description.

Question 7

Are all the vinyl albums pre-owned?

Accepted Answer

Yes, SOUNDBOX deals exclusively in pre-owned vinyl.

The production of vinyl records is a dirty business. The PVC used to make records can take up to 1,000 years to decompose, and archaic album presses consume more than twice the energy of newer (and much less common) injection-molding machinery.

By working with pre-owned media, SOUNDBOX lowers the demand for newly-pressed albums and encourages responsible collecting.

Question 8

What kind of vinyl quality should I expect? Will all of the albums be playable?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all SOUNDBOX albums are playable.

Due to the nature of pre-owned vinyl, you may experience light distortion, pops and clicks while listening. Album sleeves and surfaces may show signs of wear. All SOUNDBOX vinyl is rated Very Good or higher in quality,(https://blog.electrohome.com/vinyl-grading-system-shop-used-records/#The_Vinyl_Grading_System) unless otherwise indicated in the product description.

Question 9
