Pink Floyd-The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.(STEREO)
Original 1st Australian Issue. MEGA RARE!!!! On the Columbia Orange label. SCXO6157.
Cover: Lovely condition.Very minimal ring wear.
Back cover: Lovely condition.Very minimal ring wear.Flipback cover.
Labels: Excellent apart from a persons name written on side two.No stickers,residue or stains.I can't see any spindle marks and would say that this record has hardly been played.
Vinyl: Has a lovely deep,dark lustre and shine.This was observed under normal daylight conditions.Very heavy,thick vinyl typical of the period of issue.Quite a few surface marks and paper scuffs on each side that don't detract from the sound quality at all.
Sound Quality: This record sounds totally stunning and amazing.It has very low record surface noise.It plays through beautifully from start to finish.It is very dynamic,clear,crisp,with excellent stereo sound staging and separation.Quite amazing considering it is nearly 50 years old.
This record was evaluated on the following equipment:
Separate dedicated 100 amp spur from the mains board to my plugs in the wall that all my equipment plugs into.
Naim Audio Armageddon Turntable Power Supply
Linn Sondek LP12 Turntable
Naim Audio Prefix Moving Coil Phono Stage
Naim Audio High Cap Power Supply Feeding Naim Audio Prefix Moving Coil Phono Stage

All equipment is 100% level on all planes and sits on individual tripod isolating frames. This system is fanatically set up with great attention to every detail and is extremely sensitive and revealing and i feel quite capable of letting you hear how good a record sounds or not. It is fair to say that i am extremely fussy about the sound of my records.
This record has also been professionally cleaned using a very expensive and time consuming multi stage cleaning process.It leaves the record as clean as it is ever going to get and makes a remarkable improvement to the sound quality.If you require more detailed information about the cleaning process i use please feel free to message me.
The record also comes housed in an exspensive NAGAOKA 102 ANTI STATIC RECORD SLEEVE.
Overseas Bidders: Please note this will only be sent by registered air mail.Contact me for a quote on the postage cost as it varies considerably.
Good luck and happy bidding.
