It was a pleasure to play test this. Some low surface noise on quiet passages and a few faint pops but for a DJ copy this is superb and does not take away from the listening experience. Cleaning with ultrasonic might yield improvement. Visually some very faint hairlines and some storage scuffs but overall very nice with excellent shine. Sleeve has some blunted corners and edges but overall looks VG+. Please see pics. Grading based on Goldmine standard.


Play tested on Technics 1210 5G with Ortofon OM2 Blue through Mcintosh C49 Phono Pre out to Genelec 8050B's with JBL LSR sub. This needle is sensitive to surface noise and the monitors are analytical; these artifacts might not pick up on your system and will sound VG+.
