SILENT THROUGH THE QUITEST PASSAGES AND THE LINKING GROOVES
NO DUST POPS JUST A FEW OF THE TINIEST AND BARELY AUDIOBLE STATIC TICS
ABSOLUTELY SUPERB THROUGH THE QUIETEST SECTIONS
A COUPLE OF SPECKS OF STATIC DURING THE ENTIRE PLAY, AND A TINY BIT IN THE SILENT AREA BEFORE THE MUSIC GETS GOING ON SIDE ONE
