Definitive Audiophile pressings

Ok thanks, I will wait on a better pressing that will likely never come....

I have the Kiwanuka EU black pressing. No pressing issue that I can remember but the mastering/cut is meh. Like the bass is muddy.

I picked-up a re-press of Love & Hate last year and that one was surprisingly ok, considering the bad reviews. Mine is definitely not noisy and it does the job. Doesn't belong in an audiophile thread though.

yeah, IIRC the Kiwanuka version I have is a meh mastering while Love & Hate is mastered poorly and a crappy pressing. I haven't played either in a bit, though, so YMMV
 
alright nerds--anybody recognize this deadwax signature?

I refuse to listen, thumbs up or down?
i tried watching but kinda gave up. Too much blabbering. Compares 2010 ron mcmaster, OG canadian press and the KG cut. He says the Ron McMaster from 2010 has no "bawls". Seems to like the HiFi but can see people like the OG Greenie better. Seems to be a toss up but if someone else watches the whole video, they can correct me hah.

If it's a toss-up with a greenie, then it's a winner.
 

My first AP is on the way, I have heard nothing but good things about Chad.

And :D:D:D at Anal... in the thumbnail!

AP records generally sound great in all fairness. It’s just him…

I’m not so sure this is an AP release…it says half speed mastered by Miles Showell from digital. The AP is long out of print unless I missed something
