luciferbob yeah but doesn’t the OBI say “digitally remastered”? ?

Comparing Sultans of Swing on this to the '78 Jacksonville pressing on my system shows the two are very close. The OG I think has more lower mid range emphasis, exhibiting itself in Mark's voice and some of the lower guitar parts. This one might have...

I don’t have any of the distortion issues mentioned by the user below. I would classify this as a good, not great pressing. There’s decent clarity, good low end. But I think this is a bit overly compressed. I don’t have another pressing to compare...

Just listening to it for the first time. It does sound great, but agree that I wish the low end was a little boosted in the mix.

Yeah man this is one of the best sounding rock records I have on vinyl. Really really well done. Spacious, airy, punch, dynamic as hell. Maybe the bass guitar could be slightly more defined but that’s probably just the way it was recorded.

sandrocataleta iradude23 it was cut from John Wood’s tape copy of the master tape: https://www.analogplanet.com/content/nick-drakes-debut-vinyl-reissue-cut-tape-aaa-not-digital

Fantastic sounding pressing. This is a midrange beast—Nick’s voice sounds almost holographic. The whole time I listened I thought I was listening with a tube system (mine is purely solid state). Overall I’d describe this as warm and inviting. Makes...

My pressing is flawless. No issues with the gatefold. I’m new to this album, but I don’t know what some of the negative reviews are about…this is a nice sounding record. And it is bright (not overly so). For those who want this to be brighter like the...

Nice pressing. They really did a good job: split the music on two records, the records are pretty flat and quiet, records come in polylined sleeves, and the packaging is nice. Sound quality is good; I compared to to Hi Res version on Qobuz and this...

Bought mine from DeepDiscount (which I believe is related to Pop Market) in Jan 2024. So they are still out there and sound great!

|
Sorry no Obi, but chiming in to see your opinion on how this one sounds? Thanks friend! Appreciated!
|
|
This does sound quite good and will echo the other comments here. Not sure how much better the 45 RPM AP sounds, but it can’t be that much better. If someone has both, a comparison would be cool.
|
|
archspade what differences do you hear in the AS 33rpm and this UHQR?
|
|
Yes if someone can compare these two that would be awesome.
|
|
Sound is clear and instrument separation is really nice. Overall good pressing and happy to have it in my collection. However, out of the three audiophile Bill Withers albums I have ("Just As I Am," Speakers corner and "+'Justments," Vinyl Me...

This is one of the best sounding records in my collection. The warmth and reverb are out of this world!
|
|
I have to concur with this reviewer. Dynamics, slam, and bass are simply not here. Unfortunately, figured it the hard way after paying quite a bit for a copy shipped from Japan. EDIT: I’m much happier with the German OG. More punch and bass.
|
|
Have this and the MOFI (one step). This sounds better to my ears—less clinical and warmer (while still having a lot of detail).
|
|
Overall, great sounding record. Vinyl color is quite nice. My critique on SQ is that the high end is overly extended, which robs it from having a warm sound which was typical of the original Elton John DJM pressings. There are also some pops and...

Can someone compare SQ on this to the 2011 Rhino AAA vinyl (also utilizing the ‘68 mix): https://www.discogs.com/release/4151818-The-Grateful-Dead-Anthem-Of-The-Sun
|
|
Overall this sounds great to me, with a few exceptions. One of the exceptions is distortion in the vocals on a few tracks--notably Little Lamb Dragonfly and Lazy Dynamite. It is not bass shy, but extra emphasis on the bass would not be a bad thing. ...

I assume you mean the first press is much better? And not vice versa?
|
|
Happy with the quality of this pressing. Thought some of these tracks on streaming services had some harshness in the high frequencies—the vinyl seems to resolve that issue. Great music!
|
|
Fantastic album. Did a comparison to the hi-res version on Qobuz and they sound practically identical. Pressing is great save for some crackles that are audible during silent passages, but not too loud. Mine came flat with a few visible marks that do...

I have to agree with the point you make about it becoming overly bright at times. This shows particularly when Wakeman's organ comes in after the ambient/vocal breakdown in the title track. Seems like there is some distortion in the recording; it...

I don’t have any noise on living proof on my copy.

Sounds a bit harsh at times--especially with highs like in the guitar and sometimes the keys. Sometimes Jimi's voice distorts. I wonder if this was baked into the recording or if this pressing is inferior to the 2010s (and the 2015). My Axis, for...

Does anyone have confirmation it is AAA? KG has been going on some YouTube live streams and answering similar questions--would be great if someone could ask him.
|
|
|
Just to expand on the great aspect of the record: the bass hits hard, a lot of clarity and instrument separation, acoustic guitar parts sound amazing and the reverb is outstanding.
|
|
|
Overall great sound, but the highs can be a bit much at times. There appears to be some distortion which is on the vocals, keys, and sometimes guitar that pop up at times (namely South Side of the Sky). Anyone experience the same? It could just be the...

Do the common tracks on the speakers corner or this MFSL sound better?
|

Looks like they are out of stock again as of today.

Great pressing, virtually no noise. Very dynamic and precise imaging.
