Description
Mint condition, 200g SV-P (Super Vinyl Profile) edition (better sounding than the original 180g reissue). I'm the first owner, have played this less than a half dozen times, only on my Rega P25 turntable. Cover stored in original plastic protective sleeve. Selling only because I'm going all digital (again).
For any who are not familiar with the Classic Records Quiex reissues, you can read what The Absolute Sound had to say about these amazing remastered reissues here. "The mastering chain used to create the re-issue LPs is the stuff of audiophile nocturnal fantasies: the original master tapes were played back on mastering engineer Bernie Grundman's Studer A-80 analog two-track tape deck, fitted with a one-Henry-impedance head that matches the Ampex 300 tube tape machine electronics. Judicious, mild application of EQ was used in spots, particularly on the Led Zeppelin releases, where Jimmy Page himself gave guidance (among other advice, he told them to use the recently-issued Led Zeppelin CD boxed set [Swan Song 82526] as a reference; which itself had little EQ used in its production). From there, the signal went to a Haeco stereo tubed cutting amplifier powering a Westrex cutter head mounted on a Scully mastering lathe."
These are now out of print, and viewed by many fans as the best sounding version of these albums that have ever been released.
