I have never heard that vinyl Brian. Seen it, but never purchased it.

I could stream it, probably, but that may not be a good indicator of the vinyl SQ.

@dayglow The du Pre is a fine album. Recording is very good especially in the slower movements. Warm and rich with fine cello rasp. There are a few allegro parts in the Saint-Saëns that are a little more congested than I’d like but all in all, it’s fine.

@photodusty 

Ha! Very much agree with you there. Really happy with mine as well.

pretty much everything sounds great now that I have the Hagerman trumpet. 😎
