About this deal

Nice, but no cigar. Price tags almost always have an effect of transfer function of an audio signal. ANY audiophile that has been doing this for 40 years would immediately say YES! It does have a huge difference., and thats why they spend more. The 200-gram records will feature the same flat profile that helped to make the original UHQR so desirable. Lacquer creates the father, which creates mothers, which create stampers. Theoretically, 10 mothers can be made before the father is too worn and thus destroyed, and 10 stampers made from each mother before she too is destroyed. That's 100 stampers, and an audiophile label will never press more than 1000 records per stamper. Pressing every record they possibly could will yield 100,000 LPs.

It also speaks of the toxic audiophile fandom that permeates the hobby.

Davis played trumpet sublime with his ensemble sextet featuring pianist Bill Evans, drummer Jimmy Cobb, bassist Paul Chambers, and saxophonists John Coltrane and Julian “Cannonball” Adderley with Wyton Kelly playing piano on “Freddy the Freeloader.” So by this logic one has to actually work specifically in pressing records to have "knowledge about this." And if not they are a liar when expressing any assertions of fact regarding vinyl. So by that logic even a leading R&D scientist in advanced plastics would have "no knowledge" on the subject pressing vinyl records because he or she has not been directly making actual vinyl records. OTOH you give Fremer a free pass on the subject. How much hands on experience does Fremer have in making records? More to the point how much hands on experience does he have in pressing records with and without the vibration controls in place? How is his assertion of it's effectiveness any less a "lie?"

The experience of listening to a variety of price points in equipment tells us everything about one's ability to listen critically and understand their journey to the land of musical truth. (and engineering truth too, tbh.)

So, top notch release, pressing and presentation. I’m sure many listeners have reached out in a similar fashion. Typically, I never reach out to anyone unless it’s to complain. But the UHQR is an exception to that rule. BRILLIANT.
