Pardon my starting a thread with my questions......

But I have e-mailed you folks with these questions, yet no one responds.

What exactly do they mean by " high-grade audiophile vinyl.. " ?

Is this an 180 gram virgin vinyl mastered directly from the master analogue tapes?

Or is it a 200 gram virgin vinyl mastered directly from the master analogue tapes?

Was it mastered from analogue tapes at all, or from a digital source?

Are all copies of this record bought yesterday and those available on Jan 29th " high-grade audiophile vinyl.. "?


Original announcement/message:

    I read somewhere that the album was all done digitally so that it could be put into these different formats, and that's why they had the Itunes releases and stuff

    That made me laugh...they could've done "Saying No in Den Haag" as a b-side on the 7-inch...aural exploits did say 180 tho...
    I met my wife here...you can too! Don't lose hope!

    As far as we know, it's most likely from a digital source. It's 180 gram audiophile vinyl. There won't be many copies out there and if you are not happy with it, I'm sure you can write to the Ten Club about returning it. They aim to please!

    Love,

    It would have made a difference if it was NOT 180 gram high quality vinyl.

    I have the CD, so if it was just standard crap 120 gram vinyl (or less), I wouldn't bother buying this.

    Thanks for your concern, KDH12.

    Thank you, Kat!

    I don't think the reprints of ones like VS. Ten, or Vitalogy are. But you might want to check on that.
    I shit and I stink. I'm real, join the club.

    A friend, he called, I didn't mention a thing. The last thing he said was, "Be sound". Sound. I contemplated an awful thing, I hate to admit. I just thought those would be such appropriate last words. But I'm still here.

    Yeah I have no idea and i am not much of a vinyl expert but I do know that the 10C and the band would make sure that all vinyl's are of the best possible quality IMO

    I just found Ten in store the other day (sealed), and that was definitely a 180g vinyl.
