Japanese Pressings - Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by collectors and audiophiles for their exceptional sound quality, pristine condition, and unique packaging. Japanese plants historically pressed records using pure, "virgin" vinyl rather than recycled scrap plastic, resulting in dead-quiet playback with minimal surface noise. The mastering is often clearer and have a better spatialization. This is due to a trend in Japan to accentuate high frequencies. Sometime, the bottom frequencies are a bit better also
is the third studio album by American rock band Van Halen, released on March 26, 1980, on Warner Bros. Records. Produced by Ted Templeman and engineered by Donn Landee, it was the first Van Halen album not to feature any cover songs, and is described by critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine as "[the] record where the group started to get heavier, both sonically and, to a lesser extent, thematically."[1]
Women and Children FirsAll of our records are ultrasonically cleaned. Ultrasonically cleaning a record brings back the highs and lows of a record. Ultrasound technology has been shown to be highly effective at removing contaminants from the surface of vinyl records, which can significantly improve by reducing the amount of noise and distortion caused by dirt and debris, ultrasonic cleaners can help you hear your music more clearly and with greater detail. For audiophiles who value every nuance of their music, this is a major advantage.
