Ariana Grande – Sweetener

Sounds beautiful, honestly one of the better-sounding records in my collection. The production quality really shines. Glad I got ahold of the Euro version.

Weird how no one's mentioned how BAD the quality of the images on the gatefold is. They're almost pixelated! Really disappointing considering how huge this release was. Other than that, the sound quality of the records is mostly good! God is a Woman does not sound great tho... the base is overpowering and some of the vocals sound kinda distorted. Still her best album to date though!

Sound: very good an clear sound, very good volume, no background noise

Amazing album on a good pressing. I think I have heard God is A Woman a milliom times before vinyl and on her first line you already hear how different (on a good pressing) her voice sounds. The music is very lively and warm. On God is A Woman I thought the base was a bit overpowering but my speakers are quite close to the wall so that may be it.

I agree with the other commenters. This is one of the best-sounding records I've ever heard. It sounds so good it makes me want to upgrade my speakers and stylus.

It sounds wonderful. I completely agree with previous comments - it is one of the best sounding records in my collection.
And it comes with plastic inner sleeves, which is also great.

This vinyl sounds great and the packaging and record are absolutely gorgeous! I found this LP used at my record store and there are a few crackles at the beginning of each record but I'm 99% sure that that's attributed to the fact that it's used. I can also attest to my copy being perfectly flat. It's almost scary how completely void of any sort of warp it actually is.

One of the best sounding records in my collection. Perfectly flat. Absolutely no surface noise. And the sound is full and vibrant. Good dynamics. It can be played loud and still sounds amazing.

im wondering how does this pressing compare to the u.s pressing?

For sure this is one of the best pressings in my collection. The sound is sooo clear and the vocals on this album is amazing. The artwork on this album is so pretty, and i love the fact this is a gatefold. The whole album’s theme of healing and moving on is carried out very well, and it is definitely one of Ariana’s best projects. My only complaint is that since they want to keep the sound high quality and clear, they only put like three songs on each side, which makes it really annoying to have to keep flipping sides. I was sad that I couldn’t get the peach version of the album, but after hearing the amazing sound quality, I have no regrets.
