Vinyl is hit and miss. MoFi is known for high quality, but also produced the worst quality pressing with the most returns in Acoustic Sounds history. Some pressings are near dead silent, but the sound quality is stepped on and sucks. Some pressings are unimaginably good sound quality, but with a lot of surface noise. You can even buy two copies of the same record and play them and find no two exactly the same.
Obviously the more we try and generalize the more likely we are to be wrong. There's just no way of saying one country makes better pressings than another. The only way I know of finding good records is to bring them home and play them. When they sound crappy enough you send them back. When nothing less than magic will do then you go to Better-records.com and pay accordingly. Everything else you pays your money and you takes your chances.
