One of the best boxes I’ve bought. I think I paid $120 on an Amazon deal.

@Corycm Yep, box arrived today.
@Mather I bought it from Amazon Brazil, so probably I paid more than you would, but still cheaper than what I would pay with shipping and taxes if I ordered it from the US. I payed 180 bucks.

@marshall Very happy with it. Flat records, super quiet pressing, soundstage is awesome.

It’s sitting at about $124 on Amazon, retail is closer to $180 USD.

I got the box and they sound great, but I thought that only Ghost In The Machine was half speed. am I remembering that incorrectly?

@Mather I got the box for $96 on Amazon a few weeks ago, I've been tracking this box for a while, well worth the price :)

@gafacaode, got it. I haven't spun them in a while, but for some reason I thought GitM was there only half speed. maybe there was something else different about it from the others?

My only complaint is the damn belly band on the box............it won't stay in place, lol

Good to know the half speeds sound good. I was iffy since they are digital sources but this might open up another can of worms...

Not all digital sourcing is bad if it's done right. Would I prefer direct analog tapes, yes, but sometimes they don't exist......and that's going to become harder and harder as time passes I think. That being said, there are plenty of digitally sourced LPs that are complete garbage which is why we should always share the info ;)
