Definitive Audiophile pressings

[MikeH]

Got the Eastern Sounds, some TP represses and some more of the AP
Prestige. I love their sales. FYI I thought I saw the free shipping was raised to $125

i think free UPS ground is at $125 and free media mail at $50 still

Ok that's what I probably saw. It kind of flashed by right about when my credit card burst into flames

Haha yea I placed two orders. They combined into one UPS shipment for me and already sent tracking!

 

[kafunis]

Yeah, I have one from 2013

I ain't getting it but Billy Joel 52nd Street Mofi 45 is back in stock? Was that a thing that we knew about?

 

[Mather]

Yeah, I have one from 2013

Man the REPRESS, is the REPRESS something we knew about? -sigh-

Mike from the In Groove said it kinda just popped up so he ordered it.

We knew but in the secret forum, we decided we didn’t want you to know.

It's called SECRET for a reason

It's called SECRET for a reason

Well if you guys would tell
Me what the acronym stood for maybe I would keep the secret better!

Look at Lee thinking he’s cool enough to be in a secret forum Mather isn’t, bless!

Look at Joe thinking he’s cool enough to know how they work.

Yea—I think mine is from 2014.

 

[Ghost]

How did Big Thief’s last album sound on vinyl? Any pressing to eye in particular?

I have this pressing on eco-mix wax

It not audiophile or nothing but it not distractingly bad either. I can make through the album without think about the pressing and for me with an album like this, that is a win.

I have the VMP and I’d say it sounds good. Just like @TenderLovingKiller® said, I don’t think about the pressing, which is my threshold for positivity here.

I have this same one and it was fine! I was worried about quality because of the eco wax AND people often complain about big thief’s pressings but no issues for me.

 

[kafunis]

Yeah, like I said.. 2013, Jeeeez does this guy ever listen!?!

THE REPRESS, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE REPRESS!!
