MOBILE FIDELITY ONE STEP VINYL

After the Marvin Gaye - One Step, I cancelled all my pre-orders. The sales rep asked why? I told him that the One Steps had taken a loss in sound quality and that some of my pre-orders were over a year in waiting. He shrugged my comments off. So be it.

I know, no one here will care either, after 3 years participating on A'gon, This will probably be my final post. I doubt that my posts help anyone here. Use your Ears.

Finally, there are just too many wannabes on this forum. Guys like jafant, uber, papa and others just make the nonsense intolerable. At least GK gives a laugh once in awhile.

Best to All on this Journey

Just buy nice original pressings! Though those old jazz LPs are often very expensive (why I don't have more of them!).

I will not waste money on any of those touted Better Records! Asking hundreds of dollars for typically common LPs is blatant profiteering preying upon the gullible!

I can't imagine paying more than $100 for vinyl that isn't an original pressing.  Keep in mind that 95% of the vinyl I buy is 50/60s jazz and mainly mono pressings on BlueNote, Prestige, etc.  To me these are pieces of history and carry consistently wonderful sonics in good condition.  They will also hold value and have a ready market.

I bought two of the One-Step pressings--The Nightfly and Bill Evans "Portraits". I have only listened to "The Nightfly". I have two other pressings of that recording. The One-Step is AMAZING. Expensive, yes. But the sound quality is off the charts.
