************************************************** This MFSL Anadisq 200 heavy vinyl re-issue is a piece of musical history (only 7500 were ever pressed) ......
of this long out of print masterpiece) and is the only audiophile pressing of this classic recording. You will be one of the last to own this Numbered MFSL Limited Edition Masterpiece.

There have been so few vinyl LPs produced over the last 5 years that you should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever. .....

Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) was founded in 1977 by audiophiles with the the goal of providing serious music listeners with limited editions of faithfully reproduced high-fidelity recordings. Under the leadership of Herb Belkin, Mobile Fidelity remains a small, indepedently-owned company guided by the following philospphy: - reproduced music should sound as close to the real thing as possible ..........

Anadisq 200 Series are mastered with the GAIN SYSTEM and were designed to get the most from your sound system while capturing the incredible realism and presence in the listening experience without the annoyance of surface noise, distortion, hiss and disc warpage. ................

MFSL LIMITED EDITION. This Limited Edition LP is an audiophile collector’s item that simply gives the feeling of being directly in the studio with the artist. Used nothing but the finest lacquers. The more you play the LP, your stylus will polish the grooves and actually improve the sonics of your Anadisq 200. It includes rice paper disc sleeve to protect each of these rare LPs. This recording is mastered from the Original Session Tapes. This Out of Print LP has all Liner Notes, Photos, and Artwork from the Original LP faithfully recreated. ..........

A SONIC WORK OF ART. These Out of Print gems are the FINEST/RAREST of the audiophile LP market. The future of these collectibles is so exciting because each piece is a sonic work of art that will never be reproduced using this state of the art proprietary technology, high quality ingredients and attention to detail from beginning to end. The depth and dimension of the music is delivered back to you with all the dynamics and richness of the live recording session. With Mobile Fidelity, you will come as close as possible to hearing the three-dimension quality of the music just as the artist intended it to be. .............

***********************************************************************************************************************

Metal Laquer Disc Cutting: To produce an ANADISQ 200 LP, the disc cutting process began with the use of the original stereo master tape. To cut the metal lacquer, the disc cutting turntable was rotated at 16 2/3 rpm, while the master tape was played at one-half the actual recorded speed. This half-speed disc cutting process allowed the cutting stylus twice as much time to carve an accurate groove. The GAIN system was used in the process, which featured Pass SE units with only three gain stages in the signal path. This resulted in minimal signal degradation and better quality discs. No transformers or limiters were used in the process. Plating Process: MFSL used a unique 18-24 hour plating process where the lacquers were processed into the metal masters and stampers used to produce the ANADISQ 200 pressings. The number of final pressings was restricted to insure the quality of every pressing. Production Length: Each ANADISQ 200 Original Master Recording release required a minimum of three months to complete. Sound Quality of LPs vs. CDs: There has been much debate between music listeners over whether vinyl albums or compact discs have the better sound quality. It is interesting to note that MFSL continued producing vinyl record albums into the 1990s, investing heavily in a record pressing plant long after vinyl albums had been replaced in record stores by the CD. Discussing this issue in an article about MFSL in Goldmine Magazine, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab engineer Shawn Britton talked about the sound of vinyl LPs, stating, "There's a lot more to sound than just what your ears perceive. There's psychoacoustics, and mathematically because of the sample rate of typical compact discs, you're missing information. You're looking out your bay window, onto the river, and you can crank those vertical blinds slightly to where they're not parallel any more, they start closing. That's what CD audio is like. A bit of the information is missing. And in comparing CD to LP, the resolution's not there. That's why a lot of the audiophiles say LPs sound better. A lot of people can perceive that. If you play it for them, and you A/B with a very valid comparison, same cabling, same pre-amp, same amplification, you do an A/B switching, most people can perceive that. Joe and Jane six-pack, if you point out to them how to listen, they say, "I see what you mean." What most people hear is the room, the ambient information. That lack of information is what we address in our analog-to-digital converter technology. With custom built high-resolution electronics from Theta Digital, we can get the listener closer to the actual sonics of the master tape, closer to the LP sound." Vinyl Weight: MFSL ANADISQ 200 LPs were pressed on high quality vinyl with a standard mass of approximately 200 grams. ...............................
