dont just look for the cheapest deal.

the quality of vinyl varies hugely between pressing plants. its a fact that good quality vinyl gives you a louder record, ive been told this by several engineers from several cutting rooms.
also go for the heaviest vinyl you can afford.

thanks
most pressing plants offer 125 g. vinyl, and some also 180 g. which is also noticeably more expensive (i think unfortunately out of my budget).
i thought mastering plays a more important role than the weight of the support?

i plan limited series of 300 copies, do you have any suggestion or detail i should care of about distribution?

the goal of the whole thing is not to make money, but if possible, i would like to limit loss...
