Ultimate Sound Perfection
5 out of 5 stars
TevHukcamikeNovember 18, 2025United States🇺🇸
Sound is absolutely fantastic! LOs are crystal clear and HIs are perfectly balanced!! This is the ultimate version.
Неплохая запись, лучше Wonderworld
4 out of 5 stars
GupufhOctober 23, 2025United States🇺🇸
Не могу понять, почему тут такая низкая оценка. Книга в целом нормальная, записана не близко к центру. Звук не идеальный, но 4 из 5 точно заслуживает. В отличие от альбома "Wonderworld", который действительно записан ужасно.
Grey Vinyl Remaster Delight
5 out of 5 stars
ptxjirmeahrOctober 7, 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧
This remaster sounds really great. The artwork and the grey vinyl go together perfectly. It might not be the most dynamic pressing/remaster out there, but I'm really happy with it. The LP is completely silent.
Lively but lacks bass
5 out of 5 stars

My version is crisp and lively as well, yet it's missing some low-end.
Poor Quality United Pressing
3 out of 5 stars
migeqib644August 3, 2025United States🇺🇸
Awesome album, poor quality disc. Just your standard United pressing: skips, scratches on the vinyl, bent. Swapped it out 3 times - same problems. Not a well-made pressing. Audio's alright, nothing extraordinary.
