4 recordings with Audiophile SQ makes for an enjoyable night even if the power quality tonight was subpar. I would have to give Rachmaninoff the SQ crown tonight, I even played both sides! It was the first album played and was at least the equal of the 3 other Audiophile records, as the power quality slowly improved. 

 

 

@sourpuss123  - Just before Christmas I went into a LRS - Spiral Groove Records - Milford, OH with a few things to trade. Walked out with both of The Stone Roses LPs. They were a bit pricey at $32.99 and $34.99, but they are both Imports from The EU, so there is a premium on the price. But I've been a fan since the beginning, have both on CD, but was really happy to pick them up on vinyl.

@sourpuss123 

love the cd’s. Is the vinyl a marked improvement? 

In this case, for this type of music, I would say no. Unless you have a lot of expendable cash and really love the vinyl experience. I enjoy them, and I'm glad I have them, but there is little/no sound quality improvement.
