  • Hiss to Harmony

    5 out of 5 stars
    nuwmrnmacxb527 August 2025United States🇺🇸

    Initial listening session underway... On the opening track of Both Sides, there's a constant low-level surface hiss. It's carrying quite a bit of static. Not what you'd expect for this genre. Plenty of detail and dynamics present. I'll revisit this after giving it a clean, etc.**Update** 7.5ml of Vinyl Gel on each side plus Milty Zerostat fixed it. Background noise is silent now. Turntable used for this review: Linn LP12/Ekos/Ortofon Windfeld ti/Ortofon ST-80 SE/Dynavector P-75.

  • Ambient Treasure Repress

    5 out of 5 stars
    xaxumfurvbexorzf9 May 2025United States🇺🇸

    Authentic Ambient treasure with a necessary repress. Without any sleeve treatment, I experienced static during the initial spins, but after that, it's been perfectly quiet.

    Genuine Ambient treasure with a necessary repress. Without any sleeve protection, I encountered static during the initial spins, but after that, it's been perfectly quiet

  • Delightful Record Purchase

    4 out of 5 stars
    Bolipig_420 January 2025United States🇺🇸

    Absolutely delighted with my purchase, there's a few minor pops and clicks, but that's par for the course. The sound stage is fantastic, the sleeve is a tad snug with some vinyl edge peeking through the paper, but overall it's a fantastic record to own and spin.
