MOFI's new UD1S Santana "Abraxas" LP

mofimadness,

Thanks for the info. I was curious.

"While not one of my favorite albums, and the music is just okay, the recording is spectacular." Being a vinyl guy, I can still somehow understand that it is worth $100 to you even though it's not one of your favorite lps. (I think we have a serious illness at times?).... laughing...

I point your quote out to make the point that (we) are slaves to the hope of a better outcome. Is 'Abraxas" the most re-issued/re-mastered lp of all time? If not, very close, like you, was still interested.

I own the original domestic, the CBS, and the MFSL 33rpm. I also have the S/T in original & domestic re-issue and the MFSL 45rpm.

Although I'm still curious, I'll choose to live through you.

I'm thinking of starting a "go fund me" in order to experience this new process!

..yes, I'm still laughing! Thanks for that.  Cheers!

mofimadness,

I have read the Fremer review (he gave it an "11" for sonics) and was wondering...

Can you compare, in any way, the superlative sonics of this lp with a direct-to-disc pressing?  For instance, the immediacy or the extra snappy transient response and so on?

Thanks

mofi,

My last question wasn't for a possible purchase. It was just a question to help me understand the sonics of this process going forward. I'm sorry you could not understand this.

Cheers!
