Format: Ultra High Quality Record (UHQR) – 33⅓ RPM Vinyl LP
Label: Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) / Arista
Catalog Number: MFQR 1-084

This is the legendary MFSL UHQR edition of I Robot, widely considered one of the most prestigious audiophile pressings ever issued by Mobile Fidelity.
The UHQR series was produced using:
• JVC Japan “Supervinyl” compound
• Flat-profile pressing
• Custom heavyweight 200g vinyl
• Low-tolerance stampers and manual cycles
• Premium lift-top presentation box

The box retains the classic black UHQR design with silver Original Master Recording band across the top and red MFSL/Arista logos. A factory-applied Canadian Audiomark Sales sticker is present on the shrink.

UHQR editions of I Robot are among the most desirable MFSL issues due to outstanding mastering quality and extremely low production numbers.

💎 CONDITION VINYL: Presumed MINT (unplayed) box: Factory-sealed, never opened
(original shrink has tears) 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS
  • • Authentic first-issue UHQR (1983), not a re-release.
    • Retains the original Audiomark Sales Canadian retail sticker on front shrink.
    • The UHQR box finish is extremely prone to scuffing; the wear visible in photos is typical and not a sign of handling abuse.
    • Edge shows catalog: MFQR 1-084, and spine shows I ROBOT in red print.
    • Small dent/press mark visible along lower edge (documented in photos).
    • Overall, a rare sealed example with honest age wear to the box exterior.

🔍 MATRIX / LABEL DETAILS
  • Factory-sealed – exact matrix not visible.
    Typical UHQR matrix etchings for this title include:
    MFQR 1-084 A (Side A)
    MFQR 1-084 B (Side B)
    with MFSL proprietary hand-etched identifiers and JVC pressing marks.
