Vinyl sounds good, but has too much noise to be the best. Although that could just be my cat's fault, realistically - i spend a lot time removing hair from records.

Too much noise? Older records sure. But new stuff? On mine you can't tell the difference. There's no hum, no crackling, no noise. It is recommended to brush your records before playing though. Perhaps that's the problem?

The records are new, and I brush them before each use. I've used different carts so that's probably not the issue either. Maybe I just got all bad records.. Maybe I could hear a difference on yours. Who knows at this point

Odd. But yeah, many factors.
