PLAYING THE RECORD
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW CRISP AND CLEAN THE DISC SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST MAGNIFICENT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD HOW IT WAS INTENDED. THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUNDWHATSOEVER
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND POPS, JUST A PURE CLEAN SOUND.
I HEARD NO MORE THAN A FEW SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN SILENT PASSAGES
I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN 1-2 MINUSCULE STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH MINT MINUS
PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL
