Due to the nature of using studio monitors these listening defects are likely more pronounced due to the speakers. Our findings might be less noticable on other systems
Condition Detail: Sleeve has marks on edges and has some discoloration - see pics. Side 2 has a pressing defect which looks like a raised part of the pressing. It does not effect the playback. Some noise on quiet passage on side 3 but overall the noise floor is very low. Other sides are VG+

This is sold as is. Please look at all info and ask any questions you have before you purchase.
