This is a Mobile Fidelity UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM two-LP collector's edition of Crosby Stills and Nash engineered for high-fidelity playback. The release is limited and numbered, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI and mastered from the original master tapes to preserve the album's original tonal balance.

If you struggle with thin high frequencies, surface noise, or weak stereo imaging from standard reissues, this edition addresses those issues by using a one-step mastering transfer and heavyweight 180g vinyl cut at 45RPM to increase dynamic range and channel separation for compatible turntable setups.

  • UltraDisc One-Step mastering reduces generational transfer steps for improved source fidelity
  • 180g vinyl weight and 45RPM speed across a 2LP set for greater dynamic range and stable playback
  • Pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI Record Technology Inc. for consistent pressing tolerance
  • Mastered from the original master tapes to retain original mixes and tonal detail
  • Limited numbered collector's edition providing verifiable edition status

Use this edition if you prioritize archival-source mastering and a pressing process optimized for audiophile playback. Unlike standard 33⅓ RPM mass-pressed reissues, this One-Step 45RPM set focuses on reducing transfer loss and improving resolution. Compared to other collector pressings, the combination of original-tape mastering and RTI pressing gives measurable production distinctions.

Produced by Mobile Fidelity and pressed at RTI, this release is a documented collector's edition intended for listeners who want a verifiable, source-based vinyl presentation. Order now or contact us for pressing and compatibility details.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the MoFi Crosby, Stills and Nash 2LP a good choice for serious audiophiles?
Yes. This Mobile Fidelity UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP is designed for high-fidelity listening by minimizing generation loss and surface noise. It is mastered from the original master tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI, and uses the One-Step manufacturing process that removes one transfer stage found in conventional lacquers, which can yield clearer midrange and tighter bass. The 180g weight and 45RPM speed also improve groove definition and reduce distortion at high frequencies. Audiophiles with a well-calibrated turntable, a quality phono cartridge, and a quiet listening environment will benefit most, as they can hear the increased detail and wider soundstage. Note that to fully appreciate the improvement you need proper playback equipment; on entry-level systems differences may be less pronounced.
How does the UltraDisc One-Step pressing on this 2LP affect sound quality compared to standard pressings?
The UltraDisc One-Step process typically improves fidelity because it eliminates one electroforming generation, resulting in fewer transfers from the original master to the final pressing. For this Crosby, Stills and Nash 2LP that means the signal chain goes from original master tapes to a single-step lacquer process, which preserves more of the original waveform detail. Additional measurable factors include the 45RPM speed and 180g MoFi SuperVinyl pressing, both of which increase groove linearity and reduce surface noise and wow and flutter related artifacts. Collectors and listeners seeking maximum transparency and dynamic range will see the biggest benefit. Keep in mind that playback equipment and cartridge setup still determine perceived improvement, so the One-Step advantage is most audible on mid to high-end systems.
Will this 45RPM, 2LP play on a standard turntable?
Yes. The MoFi Crosby, Stills and Nash 2LP plays on most standard turntables that support 45RPM speed and standard LP spacings. It is a two-record set cut at 45RPM, so you will need a turntable with a selectable 45RPM platter speed or an external speed control. The record is 180g weight, so ensure your turntable’s tonearm and cartridge are properly balanced to handle the heavier pressing and avoid excess wear. This release benefits listeners who can switch speeds and who use a good quality phono cartridge; without proper tracking force and anti-skate adjustment you may not get the most accurate reproduction. If your turntable only supports 33 1/3 RPM, you will not be able to play this 45RPM edition at the correct speed.
Who is the limited and numbered MoFi collector's edition best suited for?
This limited and numbered Mobile Fidelity collector's edition is best suited for collectors, dedicated fans of Crosby, Stills and Nash, and audiophiles who prioritize archival-quality pressings. The release is pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI, mastered from the original master tapes, and presented as an UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP, all attributes that increase desirability for those seeking authenticity, improved fidelity, and collectible packaging. It also appeals to specialists who value limited production runs for investment or archival completeness. Casual listeners who do not have a mid to high-end playback setup or who prefer fewer side changes may find a standard 33 1/3 RPM pressing more convenient, since the audible differences are most apparent on quality equipment.
How should I care for and play this MoFi SuperVinyl 180g 45RPM 2LP to preserve sound quality?
Handle the record by its edges and inner label to avoid fingerprints and oils on the MoFi SuperVinyl surface, and store it vertically in a clean inner sleeve to prevent warping. Clean the grooves with a carbon fiber brush before each play and use a fluid cleaning system or professional ultrasonic cleaning for deep maintenance; this reduces surface noise and preserves the dynamics captured from the original master tapes. Play it with a properly set up turntable capable of 45RPM and a matched cartridge tracking the recommended force to minimize wear on the 180g pressing. These practices benefit collectors and audiophiles who want long-term fidelity. Note that aggressive cleaning solvents or abrasive methods can damage the lacquer or vinyl, so use products designed for vinyl care.
