MFSL 1-507 = SXL 6288 TAS List Resphigi Maazel NM/NM Audiophile Original Master










Description

SOUND SAMPLE AUTO STARTED WHEN YOU OPENED THE PAGE, TURN UP THE VOLUME... and have a READ . 

Sound Sample is of  opening track for 2 minutes 37 seconds, from  side 1, with a 15 second gap while I flip the disc. then 7 minutes on the other side 2 opening. This is the most prone area to have scratches or needle drop damage, As you can hear,  very clean, the rest plays no worse than this.  Visually there are not even spider line scuffs in sunlight.  only one rotational spindle mark on each sides label.  That's why I reckon its NM

ITEMS are located in AUSTRALIA, see further down for Australia Post Rates to your destination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

USA buyers, due to recently enforced air security measures, please note if this is delivered to USA (or Territories) there is now a 9AUD (6GBP) handling surcharge PLUS the normal post charge (x ray search) so that is why postage to USA destinations is so expensive in the postage Tab!!!!


THIS MFSL pressing on JVC Virgin Vinyl pressed in Japan, highly sought after in Audiophile circles. Engineered re master from Original Master Tapes, remastered for the HI FI market as opposed to the standard issue engineered for radio broadcast. CONDITION REPORT BELOW .

OF INTEREST IS ALSO THE FACT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL MASTER RECORDING OF THE DECCA RECORDING, THAT ON UK 1ST ISSUE VINYL (SXL 6822)is rated in the top 12 "best of the Bunch" classical LP category on the TAS list.  (the Absolute Sound magazine list of "Must Have or listen to LP's.

The label on reverse of MFSL cover only gives credit to the USA Decca London label, as UK Deccas for licensing reasons were only sold in the USA under the London Label, but this is the same recording session as UK SXL 6822, just re mastered as described above.  

One of the early mobile Fidelity Sound Lab productions first issued in 1981, (first mobile issues 1979), INNER SLEEVE PROTECTOR WITH CURRENT CATALOGUE ONLY COVERS ISSUES UPTO 1981, not including this one, so this is most likely a very early pressing before they updated the catologue /protector (see photo 7 where this issue 1-507 is not in the list yet.  Relatively un common mfsl issue, and hard to find in really good condition. also has initials of MASTERING ENGINEER "SR" (STAN RICKER) in runout grooves.

UK Buyers BE AWARE !! Post limit of 4GBP as stipulated by ebay, this item is EXEMPT under the multiple item or heavy package ruling.

There is an option on your UK invoice for Economy mail, which will be by Air Mail and therefore the regular 10-15 days,  I would strongly recommend paying the optional invoice amount of GBP21.30 first up.

I would appreciate email contact first to establish your credentials.  Credentials mean that I need to know you will be paying with VERIFIED PAYPAL account, and I of course will only be mailing to that verified address. DON'T EXPECT TO GET MY PERMISSION IN THE LAST 2 HOURS OF BIDDING, DO IT BEFOREHAND.

Combined postage with other items welcome Please ask.

IF insurance is required on any Missionselit purchases please be aware I CAN ONLY INSURE BASED ON THE CUSTOMS DECLARATION STATED VALUE, PLEASE BE AWARE SHOULD YOU BE LIABLE FOR ANY CUSTOMS ON A SECOND HAND LP IN YOUR COUNTRY, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PAYMENT (UK, Sth Korea, Germanyand possibly Malaysia has this problem I believe). The need for me to cover  insurance for any loss in the postal service means  I will  not under any circumstances  understate the customs declaration value, for the above reasons.
