This is where I landed, with a nudge from all the MoFi accolades of late:
It's a great album, though I don't think I've seen it given much love here. I look forward to the 45RPM treatment.

I don't have the "regular" to compare to, but the supervinyl sounds fantastic. It's my favorite Dylan album and very happy with it, dead quiet, great soundstage. Is it worth $75?LMAOOO
I don’t want a sugar daddy, I want a audiophile vinyl boyfriend, who either works as an audio engineer, loves buying and listening to audiophile pressings or works for an audiophile record company!
I’ve probably made everyone gowith what I’ve just said!
Back onto the thread, has anyone gotten their Supervinyl Bob Dylan ‘Desire’ pressing? If so, does it sound better than the 2LP 45RPM Mono Bob Dylan MoFi pressings!?
@MikeH what other titles are announced on super vinyl? I think I missed that.

I believe David Crosby - If I Could Remember My Name is the next supervinyl coming up eventually. MoFi will be doing more of the $75 supervinyl but not one steps moving forward. They will supposedly be more copies pressed than the Dylan as Dylan was a bit of a test run. The other titles supposedly will be available at other retailers too!

I’ve heard great things about that one. I admittedly need to stream it since I’m not really familiar with the album.

Yeah, check it out. It's definitely of its time (1967), but I think it stands up well. (Though it could also be that the sound is imprinted on me, since this is a record my older sister had when I was a lad.)

I’ll have to pickup the Johnny Cash from my local for sure! And yes, I’ll definitely be buying The Wonderful Sounds Male and Female series!Yah! They are both fantastic. Also the mofi Bill Withers live at Carnegie that got restocked today sounds like a dream.
The nice thing about the Wonderful Sounds series is that its literally an AP mixtape made up from their other releases. Which actually knowing you might be dangerous as then you'd try to pick them all up individually as well.
I can’t afford to splurge too much on vinyl at the moment as I’ll be renting and eating out a lot, as well as seeing at personal trainer, going out and putting a bit away for travelling! But...it’s always good to dream a bit about owning audiophile pressings you can’t afford! I do it at the moment at the book warehouse I’m working at; I read all the Lonely Planet travel guides and just dream away...

This had been on my “oh I should pick that up” list for a long time, then he passed away and stock dried up and I kicked myself. Decided I better pick it up this round.I did the exact same thing

Yeah you guys have done a great job spending my money too the last couple days. I've already been doing a good job spending it myself lately too. Never thought about that Bill Withers before today, but here we are.

Sourced from the original master tapes and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 2LP set of this extraordinary 1973 record provides a transparent view of Withers' relaxing timbre and the subtle grooves underlining his arrangements.

I’ve kind of been on the lookout for audiophile and/or vinyl collecting podcasts and nothing has really grabbed me.
Anyone have any other recommendations?

Splurging in Australia means “spending a lot of money on/treating yourself to”. What does it mean over in the U.S. / Canada?

I got it (paid far too much, from music direct with shipping & fedex handling charges), it sounds great, but I didn't have the standard Mofi to compare

Yeah! I am someone who definitely likes to splurge on food in general! Food is an essential and it’s such a pleasure to enjoy it!

The standard is brilliant to be honest. So good I didn't even feel tempted to consider the upgrade.
Im trying to think whether there are any Dylan big hitters I'd jump on. I love the mono box and don't see the need to upgrade but I'd probably dive on Time Out of Mind and would be all over Nashville Skyline.
The represses I'd love though are Bootleg Series 4 and 10. Kicking myself for not getting 10
