Okay so, Hail To The Thief. Is there a best pressing for this one or is the XL pretty much it?

Go OG, it’s not much more and it’s parlophone

Yup, it’s 45rpm if that does anything for ya.

If you can get a Parlophone at a fair price that’s the way to go but it’s one of the better sounding XL presses, well at least the optimal EU one is.

"Much more" has a different meaning to people who regularly post emojis.

I picked up the XL for like $20 a couple years ago. I am not looking for an upgrade.

I’d take an upgrade always if the price was right, any Parlophone I’ve had/heard has been exceptional Here the price definitely isn’t.

I am also good with the XL for HttT. That and Amnesiac I've always thought were good for the XLs

I think my xl Amnesiac sounds great in terms of the mastering but the damn pops on the pressing are infuriating. I went through like 4 copies and none of them were even close to clean.

I don't remember that as an issue on mine, but I'm doing a album title a-z cleaning and playthrough, so that'll be coming up soonish so I can trail back to this.

Mines stupid GZ. It's to be expected.

Sure if you’re giving them away I will take one. My point was more that for $20 I received an album that sounds pretty good, good enough that I’m not actively seeking out a better copy.

I'm sure mine is too. My discogs tells me I have the EU optimal press, but noooooo way would I trust 2016 me, and I'm not home to check.

This HTTT sounds good to me, but what do my old ears know?

Of course it was $21, not $60 like someone wants now.

You all have me looking at my Discogs now. When did standard reissue pressings of Radiohead albums start going for so much?

Represses are coming up, I've already seen The Bends appear at a few places.

Definitely represses on the way to stores. I bought OK Computer, The Bends, and In Rainbows within the past week from local shops.
