Definitive Audiophile pressings

I don't know who originally put up the bat signal regarding that KG mastered pressing of Electric Warrior, but thank you to whoever did. Received it a few days ago and finally gave it a spin last night.

Great dynamics, fantastic album. I really didn't know it too well but I took a chance and I'm so glad I did!

I'm going to go on a limb and say it was maybe @MikeH
 
Has anyone compared the SC Transformer to an original Dynaflex US pressing? I have one that I have had forever and it’s in VG condition but I do think it sounds quite good. It’s a surprisingly great sounding recording.

i will compare the two as soon as my SC arrives. My dynaflex copy from 72 was one of my first records and it smokes.
 
always thorough hand washing. but ALSO, constant snacking while working from home...

I can look at and appreciate the cover while it's in a sleeve. especially if you use the 5.0 ultimate outers...i actually think they make the album art pop more with the few I have...the main reason why I store them behind is that I had a bunch of seam splits happen, or dropped records when I was trying to get the records back into the jackets. I also scratched some records/got scuffs from trying to get records back into the jackets that were too tight. I'm a clumsy guy. I am also lazy. I want easy access to the records so I top load the sleeves. I never liked side-loading them either. I don't really get the point of an outer sleeve if you're taking the jacket out to try to get the record out of the jacket. But everybody has their rituals so to each their own! I just think having NO outer sleeves is cuckoo.

I cannot confirm or deny wearing white gloves...
5.0 Ultimate Outers? Point me in this direction...

If the '72 is clean, it's amazing..........but IMO, the SC pressing beats it out.

Awesome I have that exact Hollywood pressing. I might have to double dip.
 
I just looked at that Reddit thread and am shocked!!! What the...👀
I am not sure how much news like this reaches Australia, but that insane subreddit has cost Mutual Funds here in the US over 70 billion dollars in the past week. Somebody figured out how to rally those redditors together to buy up as much GameStop stock as possible, blowing up the shorts that those billionaires had put on said stocks. The 1% are furious that regular folks played their own game against them and it's glorious.

Edit: meant to say 'Hedge Funds', not Mutual Funds

Spinning Lola right now. Like many reviews I've seen there are the predictable crappy GZ issues, random right channel crackle and pops... Not surprised. Mastering is great though.
Right channel crackle you say? Welcome to my world!

I am very uneducated when it comes to stocks, and don’t understand your comment, but this sounds like mayhem and chaos! 😂
