Daniel Krieger has done an excellent job on this one. The sounds really shimmers and has a wonderful warmth to it. That the price is still affordable makes this a must-have.

Great press, quite all the way through for the ambience to really sink

This press is very good. Not sure some may have heard distortion or pops and clicks on this press. But it’s been really silent for me. I’m playing it with a Ortofon 2M Blue that is notorious for picking up imperfections.

Just started listening to my copy last night, and I have to agree with what dmize300 says...sounds superb!

SACD layer sounds decent but the CD layer is a compressed ear bleeder! Why!!!!!!!???????

So happy to have this. No intention of selling. A great example of “get it while you can”. If it does get reissued do not hesitate

For a modern record, it is quite honest... I can't compare with an original pressing, they should obviously sound better but if you are looking for a cheap and clean (mint) copy that plays perfect, then you can go for this one (I got mine on Amazon btw)

Overall the music sounds great. But there is a lot of surface noise. Maybe a good cleaning will help?

Can anybody comment on the sound quality of this pressing?
