  • Vinyl's Vivid 3D Sound Triumph

    5 out of 5 stars
    bajkcqaa18 December 2025United States🇺🇸

    Wow, what a fantastic pressing! The sound is vast, with enormous 3D depth and incredible detail in the midrange. It's lively on top and solid on the bottom. The fidelity is powerful and perfectly balanced. I own the SACD, but this just tears it up in a way that digital can't match. It creates that in-the-room experience that brings the music to life. Amazing! [Tech specs in my profile]

  • Vast Soundstage, Unmatched Fidelity

    Wow, what a fantastic pressing! The soundstage is vast, with a massive 3D effect and incredible detail in the midrange. It's lively on top and solid on the bottom. The fidelity is powerful and well-balanced. I own the SACD, but this one just tears it up in a way that digital can't match. It creates that in-the-room image that brings the music to life. Amazing!

  • Talking Heads Album Gem

    5 out of 5 stars
    vedorecttegp22 November 2025United States🇺🇸

    This album is an awesome press indeed. It's uncertain if it'll be re-released, a pity that it's seen as a low point in their discography. With the recent soundtrack reissue, the record stands out in a fresh way. This is a fantastic Talking Heads album.

  • Colored Vinyl Quality Issues

    4 out of 5 stars
    Huhih530 October 2025United States🇺🇸

    Disappointed with the production quality, which is typical for colored vinyl, as it has some warping and a couple of pock marks, but the sound is fantastic. The mastering was done well, and I'm really enjoying it.

  • Talking Heads Blast

    3 out of 5 stars
