  RE: Wav, Flac, or Something Else to inport Vinyl in for Cleaning?
  @DBazzz I would suggest WAV with CD quality (44.1 khz, 16 bit). This is basically much more than a vinyl record can deliver but it is a very common quality that every player should be able to play. Since FLAC uses a lossless compression it is a good
