VG+/NM Used Audiophile Vinyl Record

Sheffield Lab Direct-to-Disk, Limited Edition Audiophile Pressing. 12 Page Illustrated book.

The most convincing representation of orchestral sound I have ever heard on record... ~ TAS

Sheffield Lab are the pioneers of Direct-To-Disc recording and had much to do with the advent of the "audiophile" label put on recordings that exemplify top standards in recording, mastering and pressing. Long out of print, these original Sheffields are considered to be some of the finest recordings ever produced.

This album was recorded with all tube electronics designed and built by Sheffield Lab. Produced by Lincoln Mayorga and Doug Sax, engineered by Bill Schnee and pressed in West Germany.

Condition: Embossed, textured gatefold sleeve has light ring wear. Corners are dull. Spine, toop and bottom have light shelf wear and bottom has a small split near the record opening opposite the spine. There are no spindle marks on the label. Vinyl is clean, shiny and plays like new.

Review: Musically, I know of no better record of Wagner and sonically I know of no better sounding orchestral record of anything. ~ The Absolute Sound (TAS)
