Why the ignoring of moving iron pickups?
MoFi v/s UHQR
I admit that I never doubted MoFi releases but also knew I was never fully satisfied. I loved the packaging and it just feels good owning a limited release of a special album. Since the uncovering of their digital step I have bought a few UHQR albums and really feel they are superior. I had not owned one prior to the controversy. What are other vinyl lovers doing? Are you still ordering the UD1S releases?
I have both. and generally prefer the AP releases. Each recording varies on performance. Being a jazz man I recently acquired a Mofi 45 rpm limited pressing of an Aretha Franklin Gold pressing that sells for $200, and up from many sellers, for $85. At that price the purchase was a no brainer and the recording was very impressive for an album from the early 60’s. I then acquired a limited Mofi Whitney Houston 180 gram lp for $140. That’s as high as I go for a single lp, but both recordings were worth the price. One has to have a bit of soul in their life! |
@lalitk too much scotch and late night record spinning occurred and yes, I have both; I have the Riverside collection as well and both UHQR are superior; You definitely get a greater feel of being there...there are subtle sounds throughout all 4 records that I did not notice on the collection records; I get those from Elusive Disc as there is no shipping nor tax |
@lalitk oh boy! now I feel the pressure!!! |
