I have several Philips records pressed in Italy (classical). These pressings are superb and generally, but not always, sound richer through the midbass and midrange. I have determined this by comparing the Italian pressings to the identical recordings pressed in Holland. In addition, the Italian vinyl quality is superb, excelling in quiet surfaces.
Philips vinyl pressings - France vs. Holland?
I have been looking for the Beethoven String Quartets (Q Italiano) on Philips from the 1970's, and have come across sets pressed in Holland, France, UK and Italy.
I know that pressings from Holland are preferred, but are say the French Philips pressings really all that different?
Thanks in advance for any information.
