Letter of the Week – “I really thought that was a nice repress until I heard yours.”

Hot Stamper Pressinsg of the Music of Jennifer Warnes Available Now

One of our good customers had this to say about some Hot Stampers he purchased recently:

  Hey Tom,   

So that Jennifer Warnes blew the repress away, absolutely wiped the floor with it. I couldn’t believe the difference, sigh. I really thought that was a nice repress until I heard yours.

Bloody Hell. Lol.  

Thanks as always.

T.,

Some Heavy Vinyl records sound good enough to fool you.

Up against a properly-mastered, properly-pressed LP — our handy name for such an animal is “Hot Stamper” — the differences become much more obvious.

That’s why we say that the only way to find a Hot Stamper pressing is through the shootout process.

Any record can sound good, but up against five or ten others? That’s a test that only the best pressings can pass.

Thanks for your letter,

TP
