Background -

Test Pressing Manufacturing date: March 2, 1995

• Classic Records LP Item - audiophile issue, TEST PRESSING
  

• Pressing is in STEREO

• Superb sound on this audiophile spectacular featuring Alexander Gibson conducting the London Symphony Orchestra, performing the Sibelius Symphony No. 5 in E-Flat, Op. 82. Recorded in England.
  

• Highly sought after title by audiophiles and music lovers alike - the stereo, original shaded dog is very rare and expensive, especially in near mint shape - in our humble opinion, the Classic Records reissue bests the original in many ways - in many years of collecting we have had a good number of originals. All of them pale in comparison to the reissue, primarily due to condition, noise, dynamics, etc.

• The Test Pressing stamped information indicates: Mar 2 1995, LSC 2405, 45, B2 - we can't be sure as the item is sealed, but we believe this stamped information to indicate the date of manufacturing of the test pressing, the record catalog number, the side of the record and stamper number, and that the LP is cut at 45rpm for greatest dynamics.

This listing is for a rare, long out of print and factory sealed audiophile LP TEST PRESSING issue of a much sought after recording featuring the music of  -

Sibelius

• LP catalog # LSC 2405

CONDITION Details:

So if our definition of the stamped information on the jacket is correct, this test pressing has some of the music of side 2 of this marvelous LP on it, cut at 45rpm.

***Our 3rd picture with this listing shows a white generic LP cover with the "A2" Test Pressing information. Please note that this listing (the item we have for sale) is for the "B2" test pressing. They look exactly the same, except for the small printed information at the top, right, front corner of the white jacket.

The white, generic LP jacket is in MINT condition - it is FACTORY SEALED!

A Short Note About LP GRADING -

• Mint = Only used for sealed items.
• Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
• Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
• Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
• Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.

For best results, always properly clean your LPs before playing them.

The LP is an audiophile quality pressing (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).
