Good reason to retain my 40 year old Crime of the Century UHQR?

Playpen
I also have the "standard" MOFI release which is more like a $25 album but the SQ is off the charts.
This is still one of my goto albums for testing changes made in my system.

I am not sure how much better the UHQR version can get tbh, certainly not 20 times better.

Good luck to the OP whatever he decides as it is a very nice and valuable record indeed!

Depends on  your wants entirely.
If it is condition you say it is possible a $500 album.
IF you can find someone to buy it who wants it badly enough.
Always only worth what someone will pay when you get down to it.

Good luck in your decision.

Me?
I would not be thinking of selling but of playing it!
