New Analog Technology???

The HDvinyl process of using a laser to cut a spiral groove in a ceramic disk to make a stamper good for thousands of vinyl pressings without degradation would be a major advance in analog mastering! NO MORE LACQUERS!

They’re just lacquers. The only difference that I can sus out is that the lacquer is applied to an aluminum disc vs lacquer all the way through. In other words, it’s more of a hybrid than something new.

@gregdude

Actually regular lacquers are in fact an aluminum disc that is coated with lacquer; there are no lacquers made that don’t have the aluminum disk inside. The Appollodisk plant burned down a few years ago and is looking like it won’t get rebuilt so now the only source of product like this comes from a guy in his late 80s working out of a garage in Japan.

@atmasphere thank you sir. I wasn't totally sure about lacquer composition. Only that these weren't "new"

a better mousetrap - who hoo!
