MOBILE FIDELITY ONE STEP VINYL


Just saw Music Direct is taking pre-orders over the phone for the next One Step releases:
Monk's Dream and 
Mingus Ah Um !!! 
I got mine ordered (and they don't charge you till it ships)
Anyone else interested in ordering these?

I can't imagine paying more than $100 for vinyl that isn't an original pressing.  Keep in mind that 95% of the vinyl I buy is 50/60s jazz and mainly mono pressings on BlueNote, Prestige, etc.  To me these are pieces of history and carry consistently wonderful sonics in good condition.  They will also hold value and have a ready market.
I bought two of the One-Step pressings--The Nightfly and Bill Evans "Portraits". I have only listened to "The Nightfly". I have two other pressings of that recording. The One-Step is AMAZING. Expensive, yes. But the sound quality is off the charts. 
Yes - MFSL one step records are expensive at $125 but an original pressing of POJ will run four figures in NM shape, if you can find one.
I have all of them, except Abraxas. In terms of sound quality, the only 2 that left me wanting were Marvin Gaye and Simon and Garfunkel. I think the other albums sound fantastic. The new vinyl formulation, Super Vinyl, the record is semi transparent when brought up to the light. It is clearly superior to the previous vinyl formulation and as good as any vintage vinyl formulation I have heard. The silent grooves are dead quiet and the music arrives from blackness. The Super Vinyl only started with the Marvin Gaye release.
So Marvin Gaye, Stevie Ray Vaughn and the second Bill Evans release are on Super vinyl. The Stevie Ray Vaughan, Texas Flood, is fantastic.
