  • Audio and Picture Issues

    4 out of 5 stars
    Irhsuv48January 7, 2026United KingdomπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

    The audio's alright, but there's a bunch of hissing on halftime, and the picture's not crystal clear, more like "splattered

  • Decent Remaster, Not Perfect

    5 out of 5 stars
    EbuupD006January 6, 2026United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Alright alright, it's got a bit of hiss but it ain't as bad as some other versions. Far from the terrible 20th anniversary one (which I've got).

  • Groove Distortions Mar Album

    3 out of 5 stars
    Yikcowepej45January 2, 2026United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    The album's sound quality is mostly excellent with a solid bass response, but the final tracks on each side suffer from significant inner groove distortions due to being pressed too close to the label. If there's an alternative pressing, I'd recommend going with that instead. 3/5

  • Unmissable Sibilance

    2 out of 5 stars
    BufezjogiDecember 5, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    The sibilance at the end of each side is just impossible to miss

  • Sibilance Issue, Great Pressing

    4 out of 5 stars
    upginbobdabDecember 4, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Without a doubt, it's got that sibilance issue folks are talking about. But if you can look past that, it's a genuinely great pressing.
