PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTABLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS BOTH LOUD AND CLEAR AS A BELL WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL
NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
SOME OCCASIONAL LIGHT STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND , HEARD JUST A COUPLE OF TIMES DURING THE PLAY.
THERE ARE A FEW RANDOM TINY LITTLE STATIC TICS / POPS DURING THE PLAY
THIS VINYL GRADES NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO WITH EASE
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND MAKE UP YOUR OWN MIND AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
