Fear Inoculum in Vinyl

Anybody else enjoying the vinyl edition of this great album ? I thought the CD was well recorded but to my ears the vinyl edition is much better. My vinyl playback and digital system are very close in sound quality with different presentations. I could do without the extras that pushed up the price but having said that if you like Tool and play vinyl this album is a must listen.

It was only released as an expensive vinyl box set. It would be nice if they released the vinyl in a very basic package but the CD was lavishly packaged and they never released a less expensive version so they will unfortunately probably do the same with the vinyl.

Saw it for $134 for the vinyl over the weekend.

I like how it sounds on CD. That being said, I hear no clicks, pops, or hiss on my vinyl playback. Maybe the records being listened to with those noises need to be cleaned, or perhaps a new cartridge?

You can't hear it, but the imperfections are still there...they still exist!
