    Hey Ed! Totally awesome set indeed. I totally agree on the channel separation aspect as well. I do feel the instruments are little more open dynamic. Could be my own experience with my cartridge/stylus. But what you have pointed out is totally correct on the drifting on the stylus and seems it is off the center. Even with the tracking it does the light jump. Also for the price what we paid, I believe they should have done better on the control. Between again all the pressings, you will never go wrong with the original. That’s a fact. Enjoyed your review and take Ed! ☺️🙌😁👍🏻 TCB ⚡️⚡️😎☝️

I have a late 1970s Australian copy which sounds very good but my 1982 Mobile Fidelity From Elvis In Memphis mastered from the original tapes sounds fantastic. I believe this new Mobile Fidelity is digital but production of vinyl no doubt has improved greatly. I have also read the Speakers Corner version is very good as well and well done ED thank you for sharing this new release Cheers Carl Australia.

    @waynepotter550 Жыл бұрын

    Great video Ed!! I have to agree with most everything you said, if not everything. I don't know if it would be "my go to" version either. I have really tried, well to be honest, i have gotten into the whole vinyl thing, and again, i agree it is hard to be blown away (granted you Ed have far and away more versions of every Elvis record vinyl or CD than most Elvis collectors)....so naturally it is difficult for you to be blown away. As much as i dislike to say this, for all the $ that i have put into a turntable and cartridge....which as you already know, can be thousands, it seems, to my ears, i get better dynamics, better separation of instruments, better detail, dare i say, better everything including sound..... definitely better convenience, with the SACD for a fraction of the price of the vinyl. Granted vinyl is "nostalgic" and all that....but sound quality....the SACD is superior....granted and SACD player is expensive too and vinyl sounds great if one does not have cd or SACD....and MoFi vinyl is great.....but after trying both versions or formats....like you said, it is hard to be "blown away" and this version of the vinyl will not be my "go to" version for best sound quality.....i know you know what i mean. Like many have commented....the SACD is difficult to beat. Others have mentioned the MoFi version of MJ's Thriller $125 MoFi One-step, which again, i also have and did the "experiment"....the vinyl sounds great....better than the original?? Like you said, i will agree, it is hard to beat the original (partly because that is what we are USED to and familiar hearing) but the SACD seemed to have better highs and lows (dynamics) and more detail.....i could hear things i did not notice on the vinyl....for a fraction of the price. But this of course is just my opinion and sound quality is subjective.....but after soending tons of $ on both a vinyl system and an SACD player.....i just think the sacd sounds much better and I don't know if i can ever spend the $ for another MoFi One-step.....but that's just mho. It's very cool, Ed, that you like vinyl and CDs. SACD's are mastered with higher highs and lower lows because they are yes, God forbid digital.....but that is a whole other debate between digital and vinyl....but all i care about is the best sound....live like, or "life like" sound to make it sound like Elvis is alive right in front of me in person in my listening space.....who could ask for more, Except You Ed who has been there and seen Elvis alive in person....which you are very lucky, but you know what i mean. Sorry this is SO long. Great video as always!!!!

    Ed, thanks for showing. I have it since last week, but didn't open it because of the lid top box. (expected a box like MJ's Thriller in a slipcase). But after seeing it now, I cannot help being disappointed in the presentation. A cardboard print? WTF?! Expected a glossy gatefold or something, don't know, but not 2 black sleeve's with a cd sized cover on it. And it wobbles and is off-center? 🤣 I paid €149 for it and expected top-quality. I think I shelf it and play the SACD which should come in today. Again ED, thanks for your honest opinion, much appreciated

    I think the sound is great, but this being my first one-step, I’m pretty disappointed in the pressing quality. Mine had a scuff on suspicious minds that made an audible click throughout the second half of the song. Also, I have never received a mofi record that was completely centered. That also goes for analogue production and other “high end” audiophile labels. There is always some side-to-side movement. Also, my box came slightly warped (I think yours was too) and so the box doesn’t stay completely shut when placed on a shelf. I think for $125 its unacceptable.
