Quote | I also wonder if there are any pressing plants remaining in the world that would qualify as state-of-the-art, able to produce a product that the discriminating collector appreciates (and expects, for their money).
I guess the bigger issue, or reality, facing the vinyl TB buyers is the possibility that there is no better product to be had. Maybe what they got is as good as can be currently made. |
No Way!
You can buy the best vinyl ever made today! 3 personal recent examples:
1. Before I recieved the TB-box, I ordered Dream Theater's new album as a Ltd. special edition. Included, there are 2 vinyl disks. They came unblemished and are still today. Absolutely perfect. I think it was 80 EUR. It's very special indeed and the quality is stunning. A real piece of creatitivity te prevent people from downloading.
2. Last weekend, I was at the North Sea Jazz festival in Rotterdam for 3 days. I had the chance to meet Benjamin Herman, a very gifted Dutch sax player. I bought his new album on vinyl, only 500 were made. He signed the record. It was 14 EUR. It's probably the best vinyl record I own today. Just perfect!
3. At the same festival, I bought a triple(! vinyl record from Ayreon (a great dutch metal composer). Perfect vinyl, very nice to own, sounds like ten million dollars. It cost 14 EUR.
So, where's my TB copy on today's perfect quality vinyl?
