Frequently Asked Questions

Is this 2LP pressing good for audiophiles?
Yes. This 180g 33 1/3 RPM 2LP pressing is well suited for audiophiles because it is pressed on heavier vinyl for improved stability and lower resonance, sourced from the original master tapes for higher-fidelity transfer, and configured as a 2LP to preserve groove spacing and dynamics across the album’s nearly 72-minute length. Those factors produce clearer detail, sharper focus, and broader dynamics compared with many standard reissues. This release is especially beneficial for listeners with a mid-to-high-end turntable, a quality cartridge, and a quiet playback environment who want to hear more of the album’s string arrangements and textured soundscapes. As a limitation, casual listeners using inexpensive or poorly calibrated equipment may not notice the full sonic improvements.
Will this 2LP play on my regular turntable?
Yes. The record is a standard 33 1/3 RPM long-playing (LP) 2-disc set, so it will play on any turntable that supports 33 1/3 RPM LPs and uses a standard tonearm and cartridge. The 180g weight means it is slightly thicker and less prone to warping, but it does not require special hardware; most consumer and audiophile turntables handle 180g records without issue. For best results, ensure your platter speed is accurate, tracking force and anti-skate are set per your cartridge’s recommendations, and the stylus is in good condition. This pressing will not play correctly on players that only support 78 RPM records or on devices without a physical turntable.
How does this pressing compare to other reissues or pressings?
This collector’s pressing emphasizes audiophile presentation and sound quality rather than being a budget reissue. It is sourced from the original master tapes, pressed as a 180g 2LP to preserve dynamics and reduce inner-groove distortion on a nearly 72-minute album, and issued as a strictly limited numbered edition with mini-LP-style packaging. Those production choices aim for enhanced coherence, clarity, and richer detail compared with many standard or mass-market pressings. It benefits collectors and listeners prioritizing sonic fidelity and presentation. If you prefer original vintage pressings for historical authenticity or a different vinyl character, those versions may sound different and could be preferable depending on taste.
How long will this 2LP last with regular use?
With proper care, a well-pressed 180g vinyl record like this can last for decades. The heavier 180g formulation provides greater resistance to warping, and a quality mastering sourced from the original master tapes typically reduces surface noise and preserves dynamic range. Longevity depends on playback and storage habits: use a clean, correctly aligned stylus with appropriate tracking force, keep records in inner sleeves and stored vertically away from heat and sunlight, and clean records before playing. Regularly playing with a worn or dirty stylus or storing records improperly will shorten their usable life, so routine maintenance is essential for long-term preservation.
What is included in the packaging and is it numbered?
Yes. This edition is a strictly limited, numbered collector’s pressing housed in mini-LP-style packaging. The set comprises two 180g 33 1/3 RPM discs pressed to accommodate the album’s length, and the limited nature is indicated by an individual number within the run of 3,000 copies. The packaging mirrors the original LP presentation and typically includes quality inner sleeves to protect the vinyl. This format benefits collectors and gift buyers who value presentation and scarcity.
