I found that german records despite being pressed usually lighter than US records are much more quiet probably to the smoother grooves. I have identical Eric Clapton albums that I realy prefere pressings from Germany.
LP pressings..which country or label...
makes the best recordings besides the half speed audiophile stuff.
I've noticed sonic differences of the same album that were pressed in different countries and differences from pressings of the same country but on different labels from different eras.
Which label or country makes a superior recording or has the best mastering? I listen to rock, alternative and jazz.
I buy mostly new vinyl if the titles are available. I'm just tired of buying crap recordings and throwing my money away.
I realize that there are many variables when it comes to cutting a record, I just need some recommendations for good quality recordings.
