Reviews
- Sounds very good but the treble is pretty extreme. This is the only LP in my collection where I have to turn down the treble on my speakers.
Very good sound for the price. Good dynamics. Looking at the year of release, 1984, I think it's from an analogue record.- This release seems to be a bad RE. On the B-side I can clearly hear traces of digtally processing, especially on B2 (maybe it is a relict of a early try of digitally noise filtering or similar processing). Can anybody confirm that? And which one is the best release? Speakers Corner?
