Decca SXL 2107-8 Swan Lake by Tchaikovsky
Ansermet Conducting L'Orchestre De La Suisse Romande
This two record set is a reissue by Speakers Corner in Germany in 1998 on 180 gram vinyl.
Overall condition: Visually overall, both LP's are mint (no marks & they play flat) as obtained from Acoustic Sounds. They were played once after 12 minutes of cleaning by a Degritter Ultrasonic record cleaning machine.
The pressings are super quiet and the music beautiful sounding. There was only one notable light pop I recall hearing - on side one about 12 minutes 25 seconds into the music.
I need to emphasize, I can not hear really high frequency light tics, if present. I doubt that is a problem due to the record's condition, plus it has been cleaned twice on my Degritter's longest cycle (12 minutes of ultrasonic treatment).
Jacket condition is mint as received and I handled the glossy jacket with white cotton gloves. The "enclose" booklet is glued in.
The LP's were inserted in a new anti-static 3mil sleeves after cleaning but the original record sleeves are supplied too.
The LP will be shipped insured. Media Mail is a touch slower but inexpensive.
Equipment used to evaluate and care for the record: VPI Scout turntable & Ortophon Black MM cartridge with Shibata stylus. Each LP is ultrasonically cleaned for a minimum of 12 minutes by a Degritter record cleaning machine and a de-ionizing clean air tool used instead of brushes.
The 5 page "booklet" is sealed in to the cardboard jacket sleeve and last photos are of it.
