Letter of the Week – “Better Records deliver that energy, tone, dynamics and big analog sound that ‘is not coming back'”

Our customer John wrote to tell us how much he likes his Hot Stamper pressings.

Just have to say–as with most (all) the things you’ve written about–the better one’s system gets the better these Better Records sound. It’s incredible HOW MUCH BETTER. It took me four years of careful changes with a lot of help to get my system really, truly cooking.

Of course, even before that it was clear that your Better Records were way better. But now that gap is so much bigger.

There’s the true, analog sound and then there are remasters (and average early/original pressings). Remasters just sound, well, remastered.

But Better Records deliver that energy, tone, dynamics and big analog sound that “is not coming back”.

(I’m not poo-pooing the remastered stuff–though some is pure crap–because it’s the reality of loving music and this hobby.)

But when you listen to the right recording on the right system, it’s almost a different medium. It’s crazy how good it can sound.

John

Dear John,

Ain’t it the truth!

Thanks for your letter.

Best, TP
