Classic Records 200g Quiex Vinyl - Who's Next
Tfkaudio, hearing sibilance is not the best guide for VTA being too high (too many other variables). Assuming azimuth and overhang have been set correctly already, here's the most succinct description I know of on how to do the final fine-tuning for best sound: http://www.walkeraudio.com/fine_tuning_your_turntable.htm . |
MCA HEAVY VINYL !!! If you want the absolute best vinyl pressing of Who's next, you have to get the MCA 180gm. pressing. I have not seen this used anywhere and for good reason. Paid $40.00 fron Music Direct years ago. Remastered from original analog tapes, no noise supression, bass rolloff etc. I also have the 4 track verson and the vinyl actually comes close. |
I have all three, including the copy I purchased in 1971 and kept as well as could be, still sounds better than the Classic. I agree with Surfgod on this one, the MCA heavy is the best sounding of all three. When Entwistle hits that low E on Baba when Daltrey sings the "their all wasted" refrain, that's the defining note that says it all. "accepting one note..." |
