INCREDIBLE MINT AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH
NEAR MINT SLEEVE
THE LABELS
THE ORANGE COLOURED LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY EXTENDS INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE AND THE TYPEFACE IS BOTH UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE ON ONE SIDE
THE VINYL
SUPERB GLEAMING ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT DISC IS SPOTLESS IN DAYLIGHT. . UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD STILL LOOKS PERFECT
THE TEST PLAY
THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS BOTH LOUD AND CLEAR AS A BELL WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD AS WAS INTENDED.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE LITTLE PLAY THAT THIS LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER AND NO CLICKS AT ALL ANYWHERE
NO TICS OR POPS
SILENT LINKING GROOVES
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A FULL LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
