  • Crisp Pressing, Tiny Hole

    5 out of 5 stars
    paebqq215 January 2026United States🇺🇸

    Awesome pressing, sounds really crisp and punchy with no surface noise, and the record is perfectly flat and flawless. Only issue is the hole was a tad too small but it still fits, just barely.

  • Skipping Record Player

    1 out of 5 stars
    ib555xuar2 January 2026United States🇺🇸

    Initial song keeps jumping throughout, even post cleaning 👎🏻 and indeed my record player is adjusted correctly

  • Pristine Sound Quality

    5 out of 5 stars
    TeqZehSudfjHedoqpy27 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Mine is pristine, smooth, bright and lively. No skips, crackles or pops detected. I respect others' experiences, but I didn't encounter those problems with this pressing. Excellent separation and sharp imaging. Fluance RT85, Onkyo/Schitt Mani, ELAC Uni-Fi 2.0 UB52-BK

  • Colored Vinyl Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    VanvCgac20 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Fantastic record, particularly for the colored vinyl. It's a definite five stars from me.

  • Pro-ject Debut Skates Smooth

    5 out of 5 stars
    Siyqaiy.Xezn7 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Man, this thing used to skate like crazy with my old Audio-Technica. But now I've got a Pro-ject Debut, and it's smooth sailing, even when I lighten up the stylus from the suggested 1.8g.
