mfsl vs. classic records

I agree with Stevecham and would also add that there have been significant differences within each label's time frame: for example, early MFSLs were pressed by JVC in Japan, then their UHQR and GAIN. Classic Records also went through various vinyl formulations, etc.

I think, subject to someone else with better knowledge, that generally pressing runs were about 5,000 for each/both? companies.

The older MFSL , higher quality virgin vinyl was used and better quality made in Japan manuufacturing. Cheers

I've had pretty good luck with the MFSL label lately, especially the Silver series.

I want to underscore what Elizabeth said above in that, MFSL and Classic aside, many of my favorite LPs are those that were original stock pressings from the 60s, 70s and 80s, that cost me a buck or two in recent years, and that when cleaned up, deliver all the sonic bliss I could ask for.

with the expection of my copy of the Cars LP, all of my newer MFSL have been stellar. I have bought about 30 of the new pressings, and they are every bit as good as my older versions.

I have had some problems with other 180g newer pressings being rather noisy compared to older vinyl, but the MFSL, as I stated, have all been about as good as it gets for newer vinyl.
