The Decca Sound - The Analogue Years Box Set 180g 6LP Limited Edition No01641. Numbered, Limited Edition 180g Audiophile Vinyl 6LP Box Set
Cut At Abbey Road Studios by Sean Magee. I bought this box set new a few years ago and have played most of the lp's no more then 4 times. A couple just once maybe twice.

Cosmetically speaking, except for the split every thing appears excellent. The vinyl looks great.

Here is opinion of how the vinyl sounds.
The sound quality is mostly near mint. With the only let down being
on side one of Sibelius Sym. No.1 side 1 there is audible surface noise throughout all of side no.1 Side 2 sounds much much better.
Great analogue sound.  Also includes a 14 page history of all the recording sessions heard on this box set.

I listened to these LP's through revealing Beyerdynamic T1 speakerphones only, on an L75 Lenco turntable using a Decca modded tonearm and Goldring Eroica LX MC .
