WHEN PLACED UNDER A MGNIFIED LED HALO I CAN SEE SOME LIGHT HAIRLINES HANDLING LINES AND A COUPLE OF TINY WISP HAIRLINES

THE TEST PLAY


THE SUPERB 1ST PRESS STEREO REPRODUCTION IS LOUD AND MAGNIFICENT. NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND NO BACKGROUND CRACKLING WHATSOEVER.

THE CLARITY OF THE REPRODUCTION IS BOTH CRISP AND CLEAN, AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD EXACTLY AS WAS INTENDED

THERE IS NO VINYL NOISE AND AND JUST THE ODD SECOND OR TWO OF VERY MILD STATIC HEARD ONLY IN A FEW OF THE LINKING GROOVES AND A COUPLE OF THE MOST SILENT PASSAGES

NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND NO LOUD CLICKS

FOR ME THIS GRADES NEAR MINT WITH EASE

BUT PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
