Simply Vinyl is no better or worse than Classic Records, Mobile Fidelity, and other 180 gram records; they all have some winners and losers. The most consistent audiophile label was DCC -- almost everyone of their LP's was great! As to Simply Vinyl, here are some reissues that they did a very good to great job on: all of the Dire Straits LP's, Cream's "Disraeli Gears", Dylan's "Blonde on Blonde", Derek and Dominos' "Layla", Animals'"Singles Plus", Fairport Convention's "Unhalfbricking", The Who's "Tommy", Eric Clapton's "461 Ocean Blvd", Supertramp's "Breakfast in America", Roxy Music's "Avalon", Crowded House's "Crowded House", Van Morrison's "Back on Top" and "You Win Again" to name a few. One note of caution on the above SV recommendations -- some of the recordings (e.g., "Layla") were not great recordings to begin with, but each of those I have recommended above are the best recordings of those albums I have heard (that doesn't mean better versions don't exist, I just haven't heard better!)
What do you think of the new "Simply Vinyl" albums
I have a few of these new recordings and I am amazed how good they sound. I just finished listening to Dylans "Blood on the Tracks" and now I have Elvis on the table. I am surprised how good they sound. I have other "Audiophile" recordings in my collection but the sound of the Simply Vinyl exceeds all but the very best i.e. UHQR and some 220g MFSL stuff. These things are really good, and at $22.00 are not a bad deal. What do you think of these new LPs?
