SUPERB MINT AUDIO
NEAR MINT SLEEVE WITH OBI AND LYRIC INSERT
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE SILVER AND WHITE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND FULLY STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THE BLUE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND UNRUBBED. A CLOSE EXAMINATION OF THE SPINDLE HOLE REVEALS JUST A COUPLE OF TINY SPIDER LINES
THE VINYL
THE RECORD IS STILL GLOSSY AND IN DAYLIGHT IS FLAWLESS
UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO IT STILL LOOKS PRISTINE, A STUNNING MINT RECORD
THE TEST PLAY
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THE LP SOUNDS. THE SILENT BITS ARE SILENT, AND THE MUSIC COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING. NO STICKS, OR SKIPS
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
NO TICS OR POPS
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT
