My best guess is that its fake. Someone with a really good analog setup could have done a vinyl rip and then just burned it to a CD. A good way to check is to play the CD through a decent pair of headphones and listen for surface noise during quiet passages or in between tracks.
Pink Floyd The Wall DTS 24 bit gold 2CD
I bought an import of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" a few years back on eBay (paid about $50 I think). It appears to be an Asian import but I can't find ANY information on it. Must have been an impulsive buy because I simply don't remember what motivated me to bid on it.
It's marketed as 24 bit Gold Color Disc, has a "YX•0209" hologram on it and is released by Polydor. This is the best sounding CD I have heard of this album - compression may have been used but it is definitely done well. I have the 1994 and 2013 versions of the album that simply don't compare. It definitely has it's flaws: Discs are mislabeled (Disc 1 is actually Disc 2 and vice versa) and tracks are not seamless.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
