Reviews
anyone have a sound quality comparison to the MoFi version?- Sounds terrific. I don't have any issues with surface noise. It is a very spacious sounding record. Sounds more like the original 70s records I have. Cool look with the rainbow design.
Definitely great sound quality, but extremely noisy vinyl. GZ pressings are notorious for using poor vinyl.
Don’t hesitate with this one! The color is fantastic and the sound quality is impeccable. Great mastering. No surface noise on my copy. 10/10!
I agree with previous reviews. Fantastic sound quality for a colored pressing. Easy on the eyes as well 😍.- I'm stunned, how can a vinyl with a rainbow effect sound so quiet? I'm amazed at the clarity and clean sound that is from this. No distorted vocals or instruments, just a nice clear sound. Thumbs up to whoever pressed / mastered this record, as it is perfectly done from start to end. Bravo!
This pressing is perfection! absolutely no surface noise. Flawless indeed.
Wonderful sounding pressing. Fabulous low end and the vocals are clear and right up front.- Sounds exceptional. Nice thick low end rounding out a very nice full sounding record. Super clear, super clean, super tight sound. Dynamic vocals. Punchy drums. Flawless pressing: flat, centered and not a lick of surface noise. Comes in polylined inner sleeve with replica inner sleeve. A great release.
