THE LABELS
THE TRI-COLOUR LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED.
THERE ARE 5-6 TINY SPIDER LINES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE HOLE,SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THE LP HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THIS HEAVY WEIGHT DISC HAS ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SHEEN ON THE SURFACE AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS. WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE VIRTUALLY NO WISPY HAIRLINES. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF LIGHT DULL LINES AND SOME SMALL SURFACE HANDLING LINES WHICH ARE NON FEELABLE AND SURFACE ONLY
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE CLARITY OF THIS FIRST PRESS IS THERE FOR ALL TO HEAR. A VERY SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION THAT IS ABSOLUTELY CRYSTAL CLEAR.
SO THE FIRST THING TO MENTION IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THIS SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION
SECONDLY THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ABSOLUTELY NO STATIC HEARD EITHER. THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
WHAT YOU WILL HEAR DURING THE PLAYTHROUGH ARE SOME RANDOM TINY LITTLE TICS, APPROX 10 DURING THE ENTIRE PLAY THROUGH. THEY ARE REALLY LOW LEVEL AND MOST ARE ONLY AUDIBLE WHEN SITTING RIGHT ON TOP OF THE SPEAKERS. NORMAL LISTENING DISTANCE ELIMINATES MOST OF THEM
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS INCREDIBLE AUDIO PERFORMANCE AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS. FOR ME THE CLARITY AND NOISE FREE VINYL MORE THAN MAKES UO FOR THE OCCASIONAL TINY TIC
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO, BUT PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND DECIDED FOR YOURSELF
