THE VINYL

THE  VINYL IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE DISC GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND THIS SUPERB VINYL  IS AS CLEAN AND MARK FREE AS YOU COULD WANT.EVEN WHEN PUT UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE, OTHER THAN A COUPLE OF NEAR INVISIBLE WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I JUST KNOW THAT POTENTIAL BIDDERS WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, AND WHILST THIS TAKES ME FAR LONGER TO COMPLETE, I AM CONVINCED THE EFFORT IS WORTH IT

THIS ALBUM PLAYS TO NEAR PERFECTION. THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FIRST PRESS ALL THE WAY. JUST CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL. THIS LP HAS BARELY HAD ANY PLAY AND WHAT LITTLE IT HAS RECEIVED WAS CONDUCTED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A PERFECTLY WEIGHTED STYLUS AND ONE THAT WAS ALSO UNWORN

THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST AS NEW!! NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS

I SIT NO MORE THAN A FEW INCHES FROM MY SPEAKERS AS I TYPE THIS OUT AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN THE ODD RANDOM SPECK OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC AND A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST STATIC TICS / 

PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS CLASSIC ALBUM AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS
