A special offering of authentic Music Matters SRX vinyl formulation Test Pressings. Each title comes with a white "test pressing' jacket and white label featuring the Blue Note Catalog number, A/B sides and inner sleeve. Each title offered had been inspected by the Music Matters team and the records were seperated from the jacket to prevent seam splitting and the record is shipped in a white jacket to prevent transit damage.
Each album is SEALED, in new condition.
Also included as an added bonus is a new, genuine, final art work Music Matters Gate-fold jacket to accompany your SRX super vinyl test pressing.
This is a great opportunity to own a Music Matters Jazz SRX record and enjoy the amazing qualities, quiet noise floor and stunning dynamics found in this special formulation vinyl. Many of the original SRX release records are now selling hundreds of dollars and up to $500 and more. This is the same genuine SRX vinyl as the original MMJ release. The SRX vinyl is a Music Matters Jazz proprietary vinyl formulation that offers an extremely low noise floor. The vinyl appears black, but when held up to light it is translucent and smoky grey, revealing this high quality vinyl formulation. It provides a silent running experience that allows the music to come forward, hence the name "SRX".
Each SRX test pressing was pressed at RTI and is of the same quality as the original releases. Due to the complexity of pressing the special SRX vinyl formulation, all test pressings were inspected and subject to the same stringent quality control checks. Please refer to the Music Matters Jazz website for more information on the incredible SRX series of records.
About Test Pressings:
Test pressings are historically the first pressings made or 'stamped' and are intended for music critics, promotion and colleagues in the industry. For some, the test pressings are highly desired as these are the first vinyl copies to be pressed by a record stamper ensuring higher fidelity. These test pressings have the same quality and sonic fidelity as the original Music Matters record, as they are first ones to be pressed off the final, "approved" virgin "record stampers" at the time of production. All test pressings were visually and aurally inspected by the Music Matters team and RTI at the time of production.
