THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE TAN REPRISE LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE 1-2 SPIDER LINES NEAR THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE DISC.NOT A FINGERMARK ANYWHERE, AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CLEARLY AND CLEANLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE EITHER, NOR ANY LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO STATIC EVEN IN THE LINKING GROOVES
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH WERE A FEW TINY LITTLE RANDOM STATIC TICS AND A VERY LIGHT SPECK OF BACKGROUND IN A SILENT PASSAGE OR TWO
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH NEAR MINT IT IS THAT GOOD
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
